How can i disable a specific box collider of an object when my player walk in it [Solved]

Hello

i want to know how can i disable a specific box collider when the player walk throw it

the player will try to find 7 switches to turn them on by just walking around them when the player find one a GUI text will count 1 of 7 .

my problem is the box collider still there so the player can go throw it again and it will count 2 of 7 how can i disable the collider if that object?

thank you .

 

In the OnTriggerEnter() for the collider, just set the collider's .enabled to false.

Code (csharp):

1. void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other)
2. {
3.      this.enabled = false;
4. }

[Edit: I meant .enabled, not .enable; code fixed above.]

 

Hello tried it but the word enable is an Error !

thanks

 

Update : to remove the box collider this is the code

Code (CSharp):

1.         other.GetComponent<BoxCollider>().enabled = false;
2.  

the problem i attached it to the player and when the player will find any box collider will disable it , i just wanted to disable the box collider of objects with tag "pick up".

Code (CSharp):

1.  void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other)
2.     {
3.  
4.         if (other.gameObject.CompareTag("Pick Up"))
5.         {
6.             count = count + 1;
7.             SetCountText();
8.             // other.gameObject.SetActive(false);
9.          
10.         }
11.  
12.         other.GetComponent<BoxCollider>().enabled = false;
13.        // Destroy(other.gameObject.GetComponent<BoxCollider>());
14.     }

 

Actually, AFAIK instead of

Code (CSharp):

1. other.GetComponent<BoxCollider>().enabled = false;

this is enough:

Code (CSharp):

1. other.enabled = false;

Since the Collider other is the collider itself. But I may be wrong and I'm not in the position to try it out momentarily.

 

Actually your right that works better as well , @halley she almost wrote the right answer

This code i think it disable every box collider the player touched

Code (CSharp):

1.    
2.    other.GetComponent<BoxCollider>().enabled = false;
3.  

And this just works right with "tag".

Code (CSharp):

1. other.enabled = false;

thanks a lot.

 

this still helped me in 2020..lol[

Code (CSharp):

1. myGameObject.GetComponent<BoxCollider>().enabled = false;

when making a system to shut off certain colliders when menus were opened

 

I was searching for ways to disable a collider, and for what I needed, this was only the method that worked. Thanks!

It also works when you have no menus opened.
