MonoBehaviour.StopCoroutine

Parameters

Description

Stops the first coroutine named methodName, or the coroutine stored in routine running on this behaviour.

	// In this example we show how to invoke a coroutine using a string name and stop it

	function Start () {
		StartCoroutine("DoSomething", 2.0);
		yield WaitForSeconds(1);
		StopCoroutine("DoSomething");
	}

	function DoSomething (someParameter : float) {
		while (true) {
			print("DoSomething Loop");
			// Yield execution of this coroutine and return to the main loop until next frame
			yield;
		}
	}

    // Use this for initialization

          coroutine = WaitAndPrint(3.0f);
          StartCoroutine(coroutine);
        print("Done " + Time.time);
    }

    public IEnumerator WaitAndPrint(float waitTime) {
