No Colliders Work

They all go through each other.

It doesn't matter. Mesh, box, sphere...

 

How are you moving your objects?

 

With a basic c# script.

if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.RightArrow))
{
gameObject.transform.Translate(moveSpeed * 1f,0,0);
}

etc., etc...

 

Try changing things.

 

Like how? Move the objects? I've done that.

Change the script?...

 

Still nothing.

 

No one can answer your questions because you provided no details. If you want help, you need to describe what is happening, what you are expecting to happen, what you have tried, what/why it didn't work. Screen shots/video are a good idea as well. You have said "colliders don't work", that doesn't mean anything, there could be dozens, if not hundreds of reasons why they don't work. We can't read minds.

 

I have trouble uploading screenshots, until I do that here's a detailed description:

I have a number of meshes for boulders, hills, mountains, etc. on my Scene.
They have been given meshcolliders.

My character has a basic Box Collider, however my character just walks through every single collider.

I even tested this on a new project, with two cubes, one given a movement script. Still nothing. The cube (both have box colliders) just goes through the other cube.

Does this have something to do with my movement script????


I can post that up.

 

Does your character have a rigidbod? Or do your other object have rigidbodies?

 

The character does have a rigidbody. The others don't.

 

Well, first, Translate() will be a problematic, you want to use AddForce() on the rigidbody or similar to use the physics for motion, otherwise it will behave very oddly. (it will keep pushing through). But it sounds like something else is going on because if it were working, even with translate, you would get jittering or some other odd movement, not just passing through. I just tried it on a new scene and it worked fine. Check your physics settings under project, and make sure that nothing is being ignored.

Post a screen shot of the inspector on your character, so we can see the physics settings, and the other parts as well.

Photos posted on my google + page. "Inspector Physics"

 

(This Forum wont let me post photos without links.)

 

if you just drag the image into the post box it will upload the image.

 

Here

 

- Add a rigidbody to it
- Try Collision continues
- Try slowing down the collision.
- Is trigger on?

 

I read that "trigger on" turns the collision off and makes it an event, no triggers are on.

Collision continuous? it's set in the character. How do I slow the collision down..... the way I walk through it?

Adding rigidbody didnt affect it

I've already reported a bug...... they havent responded. its been almost 2 weeks

 

I had a similar problem, adding rigidbodies to the objects and making sure triggers aren't enabled solved the issue.

 

Do I need to add a material to it???

 

No, you don't need a physics material. You can if you want to refine the interaction, but they are not required. Also, it isn't a bug, so it is unlikely that you will get a feedback/respose from a bug report.

In the screen shot, you have have the collider turned off and you have the rotation and position frozen. This would definitely affect the collision, especially combined with using translate to move it.

 

That's the rigidbody on my character. Every time I dont check those boxes, my character just floats upward.......

 

Okay..... Update.

I unchecked every box. My character FLEW across my scene, and bumped into the wall. So, there we go.

But why is it flying all over the place????

 

The other thing I may do is write a script that simulates a collider. (Ive been working on a 2D game in a 3D environment, Mode 7 type, but been making the game in 3D Mode..... I may need to redo everything in 2D.)

Is there a way to get the directions, whatever they may be, my character is going in when I touch the mesh collider (as a trigger?)

 

Still dealing with Physics

 

"Check inside Edit > Project Settings > Physics. There could be something wrong with your physics there. Might also be the objects are penetrating so they are pushed out of each other which results in some objects being thrown into space."

I read this somewhere. Is this what's happening? All of my meshes are convex and have many vertices/triangles
