Question by Marnix · Jun 16, 2011 at 03:26 PM · collisionparticles

Particle collision on instantiate doesn't send

When a particle is created by my particle emitter (it's a large and long particle) and it is instanced inside a collidable object. It doesn't trigger the OnParticleCollision() event of the particle. It doesn't bounce either if I would want that to happen.

How do I make a particle send the event when it is spawned inside the object?

Update
I tried to use the IsTrigger interface, but World Particle Colliders don't seem to respond to triggers and therefore, there is no registration of the trigger event as well (enter/stay/leave)

Have you checked the "Send Collider Message" option in the "Word Particle Collider"?

If you have and that is not working, then consider using a Trigger instead. See my answer to the other post for an example, except you would only need to check the "Is Trigger" option and attach a script.

@fireDude67: Haven't checked for the triggering. Will do that tomorrow. But still, this seems like a flaw in Unity to me.

@fireDude67: The trigger doesn't work. If a particle is instanced inside an object, no event is fired. But this is because there is no event at all for triggers on particles. See: http://answers.unity3d.com/questions/130908/continue-particle-through-world-particle-collider.html
