How do I script a script to put on a static game object, to detect when the character controller is colliding with it?

I actually have found a different solution to my problem, however the answer to this specific problem would still be useful to know.

$$anonymous$$mmpies, thanks for the answer, though from what I understand OnCollisionEnter only works if the object that the script is attached to is moving, for a static object it is not colliding with anything, just being collided with.

OnCollisionEnter = OnTriggerEnter

OnCollisionStay = OnTriggerStay

OnCollisionExit = OnTriggerExit

If you were using OnTriggerEnter but not colliding was a problem then OnCollisionEnter is the solution.

If that isn't the solution then can you clarify the issue and how you fixed it, it might help someone else which is what Unity Answers is all about.

Really if you think we've answered your question then click that it's answered and if you have a different answer then post your solution so other people can benefit.

I'm not complaining, I don't really care about karma points but just try and make this a question that has an answer so it helps others.

Hey, yeah that's a good idea.

I haven't found the solution to this question, however I found the solution to my problem.

Say I have platform A, platform B, door A and door B. I want door A to open when I am standing on Platform A, and door B to open when I am standing on platform B. Though it was a bit more complicated than that.

Reasonably easily I can write a script for each and attach them to my character controller, however I do not want to crowd my character controller with a lot of scripts.

So I decide to put the scripts of the platforms ins$$anonymous$$d, however I could not make the platform detect the Collision with the character controller, which is where this question was created, the solution above I am fairly certain I have tried before but I will test it again soon. It would be good for everyone to know.

What I ended up doing, was create one script on the character controller, this would then would then get component the script on the collided object upon collision, and set a boolean in the script to true, after storing the collided game object, I could then set the boolean to false using a similar method when colliding with another gameObject. Everything for the scripts already attached to the gameObjects was of course already in place to work.

The script ended up like this:

 sing UnityEngine;
 using System.Collections;
 
 public class PlatSlide$$anonymous$$aster : $$anonymous$$onoBehaviour {
 
     private PlatformSlideStatic PlatRef;
 
     private PlatformSlide$$anonymous$$ove $$anonymous$$oveRef;
 
     public bool elseWhere;
 
     GameObject Platform;
 
     // Use this for initialization
     void Start () {
         elseWhere = true;
     }

     void OnControllerColliderHit (ControllerColliderHit warp)
     {
 

         if (warp.gameObject.name == "WarpPlat")
         {
 
             Platform = warp.gameObject;
 
             PlatRef = Platform.GetComponent<PlatformSlideStatic> ();
 
             PlatRef.OnWarpPlatform = true;
 
             elseWhere = false;
 

         }
         
         else if (warp.gameObject.name == "CollPlatform")
         {
             elseWhere = true;
             PlatRef = Platform.GetComponent<PlatformSlideStatic> ();
             PlatRef.OnWarpPlatform = false;
 
             $$anonymous$$oveRef = warp.gameObject.GetComponent<PlatformSlide$$anonymous$$ove>();
             $$anonymous$$oveRef.ToEnd();
         }
         
         else if (elseWhere == false)
         {
             elseWhere = true;
             PlatRef = Platform.GetComponent<PlatformSlideStatic> ();
             PlatRef.OnWarpPlatform = false;
         }
         
     }
 
 }
