ignoring collisions with a parent object
i have this script Physics.IgnoreCollision(instantiatedProjectile.collider, collider); on a script that instantiates a bullet. the gun is a child in a parent object which has a collider.
how to i get the bullet to ignore the parents collider, can i use the above code?

Layer based collision detection, introduced in Unity 3, is what you are looking for.
Take a look in the Unity documentation
what if there's two identical objects, each with a child collider that detects each the other parent, but not its own, Ie. parent1>child2 parent2>child2 child1 should detect parent2 but not parent1
also try
Physics.IgnoreCollision(instantiatedProjectile.collider, transform.root.collider);
You want it to ignore the parent collider.
thanks this wont work for me tho as parent is also a child of the root. (i realize i hadn't detailed this)
