heres my code im useing this is in java thank you in advance for any help

 function OnTriggerEnter(other : Collider){   //this function checks for the collision of the local Collider which is Trigger (i.e. field-like, and not rigid, objects can pass through the field, but will trigger the function)
       if(other.gameObject.name == "Player"){ //the function took an argument "other", it refers to a collider that is passing through the trigger field
              GameObject.Destory(other.gameObject); //using our keyword that refers to that external collider, it picks  the whole gameObject that somehow relates to that collider, that is, holds it.  We than destroy that gameObject
             for(var child : Transform in transform.gameObject){ //
                            GameObject.Destroy(child.gameObject);  //those three lines are only needed if you have children of the player objet that have to be removed
                 }                                                                            //otherwise, you can remove those 3 lines

       }

Hello Max, I assume you were trying to get the Player and its children objects to be destroyed if the Player hit the "kill" object. If this is true, then you really added too much code. I've modified yours to make it simpler and functional as well.

Here is the new code (put it on the "Kill" Trigger object):

 function OnTriggerEnter(other : Collider){
     if(other.gameObject.name == "Player"){
         GameObject.Destroy(other.gameObject);
         Debug.Log ("Player was brutalized");
     }
 }

Also, remember to tag your player as "Player".

Happy Coding!

Noah.

I've decided to elaborate my script in the comment section

 //If our "$$anonymous$$ill" trigger object hits an object
 function OnTriggerEnter(other : Collider){
         //If that object is tagged as "Player"
     if(other.gameObject.name == "Player"){
                 //Destroy the player and all of its children
         GameObject.Destroy(other.gameObject);
                 //Print in the Debug Log, "Player was brutalized"
         Debug.Log ("Player was brutalized");
     }
 }

If you need help with anything else, just ask. If this fixed your problem, please mark your problem as solved, and mark my answer as correct. That way others who come here will know it is correct.

@maxjadin just use this script: OnCollision Destroy(GameObject Player) or use OnCollision Teleport(GameObject Player) 65.67465 74.73556 875.8736567 the random numbers are going to be the X, Y, and Z positions
