Destroy Player doesn't work....

Hey, I'm doing a spaceship 2d game. And I need the enemy to destroy the player when colliding with it. It worked when the bullet hit the enemy, but not now. Here's the code I did.

Code (CSharp):

1.         void TriggerEnter2D (Collider2D col)
2.     {
3.         {
4.             if(col.gameObject.tag == ("Enemy")); //I did not forget to set the enemy tag...
5.             {
6.                 Destroy (col.gameObject); //Destroy the player (but it didn't work...)
7.             }
8.         }
9.     }
10. }
11.  
12.  
13.  

thank you

 

The code above says if the collided object was an enemy, destroy the enemy. If this method is on your player object you're destroy should look like:

Code (CSharp):

1. Destroy (this.gameObject);

 

It still doesn't work. Idk why...

 

Do you have a collider on your player object? Also, for a collision to be detected one of the colliding objects must have a non-kinematic rigidbody

 

IDK, I am a beginner too but fell into (kind of) this problem once. Try this script to destroy the player:

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2.  
3. public class PlayerDeathSystem : MonoBehaviour
4. {
5.     void OnCollisionEnter2D(Collision2D collision) //Remove the 2D if your game is 3D
6.     {
7.         if (collision.gameObject.tag == "Bullet") //Use the tag that destroys the player on collision
8.         {
9.             collision.gameObject.SendMessage("ApplyDamage", 10);
10.             //If you want to destroy the player then:
11.             Destroy(gameObject);
12.             //That's it. It should work but it is untested
13.         }
14.     }
15. }

 

It worked, thank you guys for the reply's!
