    I have a rigidbody attached to my player, and no rigidbody attached to the powerups. This script is attached to the powerups:
    Code (csharp):
    1. void OnTriggerEnter(Collider col)
    2.     {
    3.         Debug.Log("A trigger was hit");
    4.     }
    When I collide with the powerups nothing is written to the console. Do I need to use OnTriggerEnter2D?

    Yes.

    Code (csharp):
    1.  
    2. void OnTriggerEnter2D (Collider2D col)
    3.     {
    4.         Debug.Log ("A trigger was hit");
    5.     {
    6.

    Changed to that but no luck. Nothing happens again.

    Do both objects have colliders?
    Are the colliders sized correctly?
    Is at least one collider a trigger?
    Is your rigidbody non-kinematic?
    Is your rigidbody active?

    I was using 3D colliders, and not 2D colliders. That was what was causing all my issues. Not much documentation on the difference between them, but it works now!

    Add a RigidBody2D component to your gameobject.
