    So I'm new to unityscript and I'm working on a relatively small app. I need to test if an object is on a certain side of the screen. I made two sprites for each side. If an object touches a certain sprite, it will set a value to true. How do i do this? Please walk me through it too.
    Thanks!

    What constitutes touching? ie if two sprites are right next to each other, but not overlapping, is that a touch?

    Like, imagine that the sprite steps on a carpet or something. That would count as a touch.
