Attack! Attack!

Now that the player has committed themselves into the fray, we can play through their selected action.

The attack phase will simply run for 1 second and then it will be the enemies' turn. To accomplish this, we use a simple coroutine to perform the attack itself. So, let's add the following function to the BattleManager script:

IEnumerator AttackTarget(){ 
   attacking=true; 
   selectedTarget.EnemyProfile.health-=GetComponent<Attack>().hitAmount; 
   yield return new WaitForSeconds(1); 
   attacking=false; 
   GetComponent<Attack>().hitAmount=0; 
   battleStateManager.SetBool("PlayerReady", false); 
 
}  

The following is what the preceding code is doing:

1. Sets a variable that states the player is attacking.

2. Decreases the selected enemy's health based on the chosen attack.

3. Waits for 1 second to reset the values.

4. Changes over to the next state.

All that is left is to call this function now when the Player_Attack state is begun...
