Is it possible to Tag a Trigger?

I'm trying to use Tags for both the Trigger and Game Object entering the Trigger

e.g.
If a Game Object Tagged "Blue" enters a Trigger also Tagged "Blue", do something

Is it possible, can I get a code example?

 

The collider's / trigger's tag is the tag of the gameObject which holds the collider/trigger.

There are plently examples, simply use the documentation or the forum search.

 

Code (csharp):

1. void OnTriggerEnter(Collider c)
2. {
3.   if (tag == c.tag && tag == "Blue")
4.     // Do something.
5. }

 

Thanks for the code example

I should have mentioned that, I'm trying to do all this without having to attached the script to neither the "Trigger" nor the "Game Object" entering the Trigger

I want to having the actual script attached to an "Empty Game Object" instead, separate from the Tagged "Game Object" and "Trigger"
(more like doing a "gameObject.Find", where the script doesn't need to be attached to the thing it's controlling)

e.g.
Find Trigger Tagged "Blue" and if the Object that enters that Trigger is also Tagged "Blue", then do something

 

The problem is that collisions/trigger events call the collision and trigger method of scripts that are attached to the gameobjects that are interacting with each other.
With your approach you'd have to keep track of the GO's colliders and do all the collision/trigger math yourself, i doubt you really wanna do that as it sounds pretty easy but can be very complicated.

You don't really wanna reinvent the wheel, do you? In my opinion there's absolutely nothing wrong with the methods that unity provides, it saves a lot of work. Unity would call these methods either way.

 

The thing is, the OnTriggerEnter() message only gets sent to the colliders involved. So you have to attach a script to one of them.

Prime31's open source character controller has a class that does nothing but listen for trigger and collision messages and pass them on to some third game object that was not involved.

If you don't need to know about every type of trigger/collision event, I might simplify that script even more and only pass the exact data I need.

Thanks again for the help

If you don't mind, that's would be awesome

 

Never mind, I got it
