What kind of datatype is a CollisionEvent?
On this page in the manual, it says to pass a data type "CollisionEvent[]" to ParticleSystem.GetCollisionEvents, but since that isn't a real data type, what am i supposed to pass? An array of "Collision" is throwing me error "CS1502 ...some invalid arguments"
Thanks! Here is the code i'm working on:
private Collision[] collisions;
void OnParticleCollision (GameObject particle){
//count the collisions
collisions = new Collision[particle.particleSystem.safeCollisionEventSize];
temperature += particle.particleSystem.GetCollisionEvents(gameObject,collisions) / 10 * heatingRate;
}
I found the answer, I needed to refer to it as a ParticleSystem.CollisionEvent[] not just a CollisionEvent[] or Collision[].
Thanks!
I just lost few hours to make this little thing work so I presume somebody would find this simple code useful around this topic:
void OnParticleCollision (GameObject other) {
ParticleSystem.CollisionEvent[] collisionEvents = new ParticleSystem.CollisionEvent[particleSystemComponent.safeCollisionEventSize];
particleSystemComponent.GetCollisionEvents (other,collisionEvents);
foreach (ParticleSystem.CollisionEvent item in collisionEvents) {
GameObject hitmark = Instantiate (fx_Hit, item.intersection, Quaternion.identity) as GameObject;
if (other.rigidbody) hitmark.transform.parent = other.transform;
}
}
In my case the problem was that item.intersection kept giving me vec3(0,0,0) because as first parameter of particleSystemComponent.GetCollisionEvents(other,collisionEvents) I placed "gameObject" not "other". It confuses me a bit still.
