Question by shadowpuppet · Jun 06, 2016 at 04:15 PM · triggersexplosions

trigger explosion on different object

if there is anything covering this I haven't found it. Plenty on how to blow up yourself, that is to say when the player enters a trigger that object explodes. though I don't want to blow my player up I want him to ALMOST get blown up by approaching a burning car but when he hits a trigger near the car the CAR blows up, NOT the stupid trigger. I imagine the code goes in the () in the statement " var expl = Instantiate(explosion, transform.position, Quaternion.identity);" replacing " transform.position, Quaternion.identity" with the name of the object "car"?. This is the simple explosion code to blow myself up. Can anyone tell me how to blow up something besides the actual trigger ( and myself)?

  var explosion: GameObject;
  var blowup: GameObject; // drag your explosion prefab here
  
  function OnTriggerEnter(){
      var expl = Instantiate(explosion, transform.position, Quaternion.identity);
      Destroy(gameObject); // destroy the grenade
      Destroy(expl, 3); // delete the explosion after 3 seconds
  }

You would need a script on the explosion that's destroys it after time. You are destroying the gameObject that the script is running on and so the Destroy(expl, 3) never gets called;

Try this:
var explosion: GameObject; var blowup: GameObject; // drag your explosion prefab here

   function OnTriggerEnter(){
       var expl = Instantiate(explosion, transform.position, Quaternion.identity);
       Invoke("Dest",3f);
       Destroy(gameObject); // destroy the grenade

   }
 
 function Dest(){
       Destroy(expl); // delete the explosion after 3 seconds
 }
