Why is OnTriggerEnter not working properly?
Hi,
My goal is to create a simple multiplayer FPS. Sofar I've created a simple room in space where 2 robots will combat by trying to shoot eachother (the room has a meshcollider). I've also created some cargo-crates with box-colliders. Both the room and the crates are non moving objects. Next I created the bullet with a rigidbody. The bullet is instantiated on shooting and is been given a velocity. The bullet itself has a script with an OnTriggerEnter onboard. When the bullet collides, a very simple particle explosion is called and the bullet is destroyed.
Shooting on the cargo works fine: everytime I hit a crate there is a nice burst of sparkles, just what I want. But when the bullet hits a wall of the room, most of the time the bullet just goes through the wall, not triggering the OnTriggerEnter on the bullet. I also putted a Debug.Log in the onTriggerEnter, but it isn't called.
On the image below you can see that sometimes I have the effect I want (left). If I keep shooting at the same spot it's good. But when I just move a lttle or I want to shoot just next to the same place on the wall, the bullet is going through the wall: definitly not what I want...
I searched the forum, noticed more problems with the OnTriggerEnter, but in all cases not the problem I'm facing. First I thought I was only hitting the wireframe of the mesh, but that isn't the case. Any ideas why the OnTriggerEnter could not be working properly?
Is it the meshcollider which isn't reliable as the box- en capsulecolider? Cause those colliders seem to work fine...
