Debug.log not working when entering trigger zone.
Hello peoples! I have been having this problem with my development for a while, and didn't consider asking the Unity community about it. So, here is my problem. I have made an object (spikes) that is, at the moment, has a Debug.log function on it. I fixed the box collider to where it should kill the player on collision. I test it, and nothing pops up in the console. Here are the places in the scripts where it has the debug.log.
Script 1:
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
public class LevelManager : MonoBehaviour {
public GameObject currentCheckpoint;
private PlayerMovement player;
// Use this for initialization
void Start () {
player = FindObjectOfType<PlayerMovement> ();
}
// Update is called once per frame
void Update () {
}
public void RespawnPlayer() {
Debug.Log ("Player Respawn");
}
}
Script 2:
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
public class KillPlayer : MonoBehaviour {
public LevelManager levelManager;
// Use this for initialization
void Start () {
levelManager = FindObjectOfType<LevelManager>();
}
// Update is called once per frame
void Update () {
}
void OnTriggerEnter2D(Collider2D other)
{
if(other.name == "Player")
{
levelManager.RespawnPlayer();
}
}
}
If anybody could help me, that would be really appreciated. Thank you.
Does your Player object and Spike object have collider on them? Are those colliders set as 'Is Trigger = true'?
$$anonymous$$y player has a Circle Collider 2D, and my spikes have a Box Collider 2D. Only the spikes have Is Trigger = true.
Does your Player object have the "Player" tag? Has at least one of these objects have a rigidbody2D attached?
$$anonymous$$y player has the "Player" tag, and has a Rigidbody2D on it.
Hmm... Can you post a screenshot of the current settings of your rigidbody2D. have you checked the collision layers to make sure they accept collisions?

you're comparing the name. Is it's name Player also? Put the debug first in OnTriggerEnter2D to see if THAT even works
Thank you! That fixed it! I guess I thought it was going to do the debug by tag. A rookie mistake. :)
don't really understand what you mean by that, but as long as it works now :)
I renamed my player to "Player". I originally named my player "Player (prototype)"
