Player Conditions Code
These conditions communicate with colliders (food and enemy) and stats (health, food collected, etc.) to determine if the player runs into an enemy, activates a sound, or reaches 0 on health to move on to the next level.
In the first section of the code, I set the variables "reload", "isCaptured", "capturedUI", and "eatSound" which are used through out the code.
In the Start function, I set the time to be normal when the scene loads due to the time being set to 0 during a menu activation. This makes it so that the scene doesn't get stuck as 0 and will reset each time the scene loads.
In the OnTriggerEnter function, there are two collision types, "Enemy" and "Food". If the player enters a collider tagged "Enemy", that means they have been captured, making "isCaptured" true.
