How could i access to a specific collider box if it is in a children of the main Object? The script is in the main object.

Question

Im making a 2D game so i want my enemy to receive damage when my player hits, the issue that i have is that i dont know how to call just the collider box that is in a children of the main objet(in this case the enemy), so it can "comparetag" with the weapon of my player.

I was trying with ontriggerenter2D the issue is that i dont know how to only access to the box colliders of a especific children because there are other children colliders that interfere in the process. Any one can help me pls? Here are the image references:

Hi @DrututtZ ! Simply create a script in which there is the component.

Okey, I tried that and it detects the collider. The problem now is that i want to animate the enemy when its hitted but my animator controller is on the main object. How can i acces to it? Is there a command? the script does not recognize it

You need to access to parent of the collider.. write this into the "if" statement:
Animator animator = collision.transform.parent.GetComponent();
