Destroying objects with the same name that are touching eachother.
Hello
I have already been searching this site and google for related answers, and i have found none, but if anyone can find some, then just link it here and call me a noob :).
Anyway, what i want to do, is to click on a gameobject with a box collider on it, and delete destroy eventual gameobjects which are touching the first gameobject.
i know i can use 'OnCollisionEnter' to destroy objects when they touch eachother, but that happens immediately when they come into contact, i want to wait till a button is pressed.
i have tried making a variable with the name of the gameobjects that are touching the object, but for some reason it didnt work out for me, it deleted the object i pressed, and 1 other object, always the same. but it didnt work as intended, as it didnt matter if the object was touching the object i was pressing.
I hope someone is able to help me, tell me if im rambling, and i'll try to clarify it a bit.
Thanks in Advance.

See OnCollisionStay, OnMouseDown.
bool destroy = false;
IEnumerator OnMouseDown() { destroy = true; // Let object know we should destroy. yield return null; // Wait one frame so physics can do its stuff. destroy = false; // Don't allow destruction after one frame. }
void OnCollisionStay(Collision collision) { if (destroy && collision.gameObject.name == name) { Destroy(collision.gameObject); } }
Or JS, if you prefer:
var destroy : boolean = false;
function OnMouseDown() { destroy = true; // Let object know we should destroy. yield; // Wait one frame so physics can do its stuff. destroy = false; // Don't allow destruction after one frame. }
function OnCollisionStay(collision : Collision) { if (destroy && collision.gameObject.name == name) { Destroy(collision.gameObject); } }
Note that colliders require a rigidbody or character controller in order for events to fire.
