Debugging Collision script - Help required to understand behaviour
Hi All.
This is my 1st post so if I use some wrong terms please be patient with me.
I have a simple 3d scene where cubes fall from a spawning location. The cubes can be moved left or right as they fall. There is a Plane underneath the falling cube. When the cube collides with the plane it's movement is stopped and a new cube is spawned. This works perfectly UNTIL a cube falls onto an existing cube, when suddenly the spawner triggers continuously. The spawner script is:
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
public class scr_Spawner : MonoBehaviour {
// Use this for initialization
void Start () {
// Spawn initial Group
spawnNext();
}
// Groups
public GameObject note;
public void spawnNext() {
Instantiate(note, transform.position, Quaternion.identity);
}
}
And the collider script is:
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
public class scr_Note_Collider : MonoBehaviour {
void OnCollisionEnter(Collision col)
{
enabled = false;
GetComponent<scr_Note_Controller>().enabled = false;
FindObjectOfType<scr_Spawner> ().spawnNext ();
}
}
Is there something obviously wrong here or is more information needed?
All help gratefully received.
Not sure if this would fix it but I'd imagine you'd want to disable the scripts AFTER line 10 either way, try that and see if it has an effect?
OnCollisionEnter will get called for every new collision. you might want to experiment with OnCollisionStay OR depending on your requirements, you may want to use a bool to check if it has fired yet, so that it only fires on the first collision.
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
public class scr_Note_Collider : MonoBehaviour
{
private bool fired = false;
void OnCollisionEnter(Collision col)
{
if(!fired)
{
enabled = false;
//GetComponent<scr_Note_Controller>().enabled = false;
FindObjectOfType<scr_Spawner> ().spawnNext ();
fired = true;
}
}
}
Hi @Grin - Sorry for the slow reply and thanks very much for the answer it worked perfectly! Now I just need to understand why :-/
Also, was there a reason that you rem'd out the GetComponent<scr_Note_Controller>().enabled = false;line?
Many thanks again!
