How to move a character in front of a collider and be able to jump and be on top of the said collider?
Hi,
I don't know if this has been answered here before but I would like to know how to move a character in front of a collider and be able to jump and be on top of the said collider. With the example below I want my character to move in front of the house but be able to
a) walk up the stairs
b) just jump on the balcony? Help?
One way you can do this is by setting the collider to IsTrigger, and setting it to a non-trigger collider if the player is on top of it. To detect whether the player is above the collider, use a raycast that points downward, and turn off IsTrigger for any colliders that it hits. For example:
void Update()
{
ActivatePlatformGround();
}
void ActivatePlatformGround()
{
var hitInfo = Physics2D.Raycast(transform.position, Vector2.down);
hitInfo.collider.isTrigger = false;
}
Note: All platforms in the scene need to be set back to IsTrigger if the player isn't above it. You can add a script to the platform to set itself to IsTrigger every LateUpdate or smt.
Thank you!
I'm really new to all of this, program$$anonymous$$g with C# and Unity, as a whole, I am curious why write it in code versus using a PlatformEffector2d component?
Yes, I originally wrote the question for a 3D and 2D solution, but for a 2D game like yours, a platform effector 2D works perfectly for this.
