Need help with collider triggers..

Code (CSharp):

1. public class PlatformScript : MonoBehaviour {
2.  
3.     public float speed  = 6.0f;
4.     Transform player;
5.     Transform obstacle;
6.  
7.  
8.  
9.     void start () {
10.         player = GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("Player").transform;
11.         obstacle = GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("Obstacle").transform;
12.     }
13.  
14.     void OnTriggerEnter2D(Collider2D other){
15.  
16.  
17.     }
18.  
19.     void Update () {
20.  
21.         transform.position += Vector3.left * speed * Time.deltaTime;
22.    
23.     }
24. }
25.  

This is what I have so far. I want the Platform object to detect when the player object and obstacle object have collided then stop the vector3.left command until they are no longer colliding, then resume the command.
how would I do this? Would I have to use ray casting?

 

Code (js):

1.  
2. var canMove : boolean = true;
3.  
4. function Update ()
5. {
6.      if (canMove)
7.      {
8.           transform.position.x = Vector stuff
9.      }
10. }
11. function OnTriggerEnter (trig : Collider)
12. {
13.      canMove = true;
14. }
15. function OnTriggerExit (trig : Collider)
16. {
17.      canMove = false;
18. }
19.  
20.  

 

needs to be csharp

 

you can't translate?

 

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. bool canMove = true;
3.  
4. public float speed =  6.0f;
5. Transform player;
6. Transform obstacle;
7.  
8. void Update ()
9. {
10.      if (canMove)
11.      {
12.           transform.position.x += Vector3.Left * speed * Time.deltaTime;
13.      }
14. }
15. void OnTriggerEnter (Collider trig)
16. {
17.      canMove = false;
18. }
19. void OnTriggerExit (Collider trig)
20. {
21.      canMove = true;
22. }

 

Thanks mate, was having a go at translating after i posted the reply. probably could of done it tbh but thanks for doing it. much obliged

 

No problem

 

still having a bit of trouble. Can't figure out how to tell the PlatformScript that player and obstacle have collided. Sorry v new to this

 

Can you tell me what is hitting what, what has colliders, whether or not they are triggers, and where your scripts are attached. That'll help me see what the problem is

 

The collision script is on my player object to detect when it collides with the obstacle object. at the moment i have it set to debug.break. But I want the platform script (so the one above) to detect this collision and stop moving. none of them have triggers. Would I use delegate?

 

Sorry, I'm not familiar with delegate

 

ok, no worries, thanks for your help anyway!
