light on collision help (scripting)
i want a light to be off to start with then turn on when there is a collision with a tagged object here is my script
function Start() {
Orb.enabled = false;
}
var Orb : Light;
Orb.enabled = false;
function OnCollisionEnter(hit : Collision)
{
if (hit.gameObject.name == "bullet")
{
Orb.enabled = true;
}
}
the light doesn't turn on when collision is detected how can i fix this?
any suggestions/ amendments would be great
thanks
Have both your light and your bullet got a collider component? Does one of them have a non-kinematic rigidbody component?
i have a similar script which effects sound and that works fine and the bullet does have a collier
use active instead of enable
Orb.active = true;
i did this
function Start() {
Orb.active = false;
}
var Orb : Light;
Orb.active = false;
function OnCollisionEnter(hit : Collision)
{
if (hit.gameObject.name == "bullet")
{
Orb.active = true;
}
}
but it the light still doesn't come on
Perhaps it's an issue with your lights and their types. Is it set as important or not important? Also, are you in vertex lit or forward rendering? and If in forward, how many pixel lights are you allowing in your project settings?
