I would suggest cleaning this up. As @IgnoranceIsBliss said, strings can already be accessed as arrays. Therefore you can eliminate your SplitString function. Also, I'm assuming that underScore is the...

Just use a raycast from your cursor coordinates. Like so: void Update () { if(Input.GetButtonDown("Fire1")) { Ray ray = Camera.main.ScreenPointToRay(Input.mousePosition); RaycastHit hit;...

I believe you could try using a switch-case method for this (never worked with switch-cases before though so we shall see how I go): void Update () { switch (yourRandomVar) { case 0: yourRandomVar =...

Yeah, that's because selectedTarget is typecast as a Transform, while my code specifies it as a GameObject. My bad. :D Change this line: selectedTarget = hit.collider.gameObject; to: selectedTarget =...

Yes, this is because of the structure of arrays. Let me explain. Say you were to have an array of ints called intArray which contains [5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35]. The way in which array elements are...

The problem is that when you run you OnCollisionEnter() function, you call `Destroy(this.gameObject)` before you are even able to increment your score. This means it will not work as this script is...
