Question by DecayedBomb · Feb 07, 2013 at 08:40 AM · convex

turning CONVEX 'on' via script

 enter code here OnMouseDown(){ 
     
         transform.parent = null;
         rigidbody.isKinematic = false; 
         transform.InverseTransformPoint(transform.position);
     
     // all above is working just as planned
     
     //here need it so Convex is turned on the MeshCollider
     //but there is an error with this \/
         transform.collider.convex = true;
     
     }

I get the error: 'convex' is not a member of 'UnityEngine.Collider' why can't I access the convex toggle this way? -thank you

The class Collider does not have a 'convex' property, MeshCollider does. The following code does what you want:

 transform.GetComponent<MeshCollider>().convex = true;

PS: You're using InverseTransformPoint incorrectly. It returns a Vector3, which you are not using, so the function call will essentially do nothing.

Thank you!!! I was running around all day trying to figure this out... Also you're right about InverseTransform, but i swear before when I didn't have it on the object would instantly move to the far corner of the map... probably had some other part of script active and messed it up.

Thank you again!

Btw, in addition this line:

transform.InverseTransformPoint(transform.position);

will return Vector3.zero because transform.position is the origin of the local coordinate system. Transferring the worldspace position into it's own local space will always result in Vector3.zero (0,0,0)
