Question by Plurper · Sep 21, 2016 at 06:54 PM · collider2d gamedestroy objectfindgameobjectswithtag

Is it possible to destroy an object only within the collider?

Hi there

Im currently working on a spawn system in a 2D flappy bird like game. I have a spawn system for the obstacles the player has to dodge and am struggling with a problem.

I want to have a box collider that sits right next to the camera and destroys a gameobject as soon as it is too close to another object.

Is it possible to do a findgameobjectswithtag destroy only within a box collider or something like that?

Hi @Plurper. I think you will want to use OnCollisionEnter. I'm going to send you a link for the scripting API as there are an infinite number of ways this function can be used.

https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Collider.OnCollisionEnter.html

In addition check out the tutorial on Colliders if you are rusty with your physics as you will need to make sure you have rigid bodies attached to your object.

https://unity3d.com/learn/tutorials/topics/physics/colliders?playlist=17120

Once you are comfortable with scripting your OnCollisionEnter event, you can call the Object.Destroy function as described below

https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Object.Destroy.html

I hope you find this information helpful. If you do, please don't forget to accept the response and give it a +1. Let me know if you need anything further.
