    Hi, I am having problems with the unity rejecting my OR statement:

    Code (CSharp):
    1.     void OnTriggerEnter (Collider other)
    2.     {
    3.         if (other.tag == "Boundary") || (other.tag == "Asteroid")
    4.         {
    5.             return;
    6.         }
    7.        
    8.     Destroy(other.gameObject);
    9.     Destroy(gameObject);
    10.     }
    11. }

    I think it's because of missing parentheses:

    Code (CSharp):
    1. if ((other.tag == "Boundary") || (other.tag == "Asteroid"))

    Alternatively, if you don't intend to keep the parentheses inside:

    Code (CSharp):
    1. if (other.tag == "Boundary" || other.tag == "Asteroid")
