How can I activate a Particle system using a box collider as a trigger
Ive been developing a small mini game where you fly around as a bird pooping on people. I have a prefab called poop which drops downward on the y axis it has a sphere collider attached to it and a rigidbody. I have made a particle system the child of a character who walks around the map the particle system has a box collider which i set as trigger. Now i cant figure out how to make the particle system play when the poop prefab hits it,............ Can anyone help me pls
Have you tried OnTriggerEnter()?
void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other) {
GetComponentInChildren<ParticleSystem>().Play();
}
thank you worked like a charm now theres a nice big poop splat that comes off the character :)
Try this out:
void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other) {
if (other.tag == "character") {
GetComponentInChildren<ParticleSystem> ().Play ();
}
}
set your character tag to "character". this code is attached to the character.
This also worked either method is acceptable and in this case it would be wise to tag the character anyhow so thank you sir
