Question by Extrapafurdio · Sep 12, 2015 at 10:40 AM · collider2d triggers ontriggerenter2d

void OnTriggerEnter() not working properly?

 public bool testTrigger = false;


 void onTriggerEnter2D(Collider2D key)
 {
     if (key.gameObject.CompareTag("Key"))
     {
         testTrigger = true;
         key.gameObject.SetActive(false);
     }
 }

Simple as that, I just want to deactivate the key in the hierarchy. But, when the character enters the trigger, nothing happens. Not even the boolean appears as true in the inspector. This script is attached to the player game object, not to the key I want to deactivate. What is wrong if this code?

You're checking if the $$anonymous$$ey gameObject enters the trigger. Shouldn't you check if (key.gameObject.CompareTag("Player")) ?

But that would set your Player deactive.

 public bool testTrigger = false;
 public GameObject key;
 void Start(){
 key = GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("$$anonymous$$ey");
 }
 
  void onTriggerEnter2D(Collider2D other)
  {
      if (other.gameObject.CompareTag("Player"))
      {
          testTrigger = true;
          key.gameObject.SetActive(false);
      }
  }
