Switching on and off on collision

Hi guys,

struggling with what should be basic, we're switching a GUI text on with the following script when u walk into an object with the FPS controller, that has a tag called "head1" -

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. function OnControllerColliderHit (hit : ControllerColliderHit){
3.    
4.     if (hit.collider.gameObject.tag == "head1") {
5.        
6.         switcher.switcher();
7.  
8.     }
9.    
10. }
11.  

This references a static function called "switcher" in a script also called "switcher", below -

Code (csharp):

1.  
2.  
3. //function to switch GUI Texture on / off
4. static function EnableTaggedGUIText(tag : String, enable : boolean) {
5.  
6.     //check for an object with a certain tag
7.    var go = GameObject.FindWithTag(tag);
8.    if(go) {
9.    //   if found, address its GUITexture component
10.       var gt = go.GetComponent(GUIText);
11.       if(gt) {
12.        //..and enable it
13.         gt.enabled=enable;
14.       }
15.      
16.      // if not found state that there is no GUITexture on the gameObject
17.       else {
18.           Debug.Log("Error: The GameObject does not have a GUIText component to enable", go);
19.       }
20.    }
21.    //if no tagged game object matching found, return following statement
22.    else {
23.       Debug.Log("Error: Could not find a GameObject tagged "+tag);
24.    }
25. }
26.  
27.  
28.  
29. function Start(){
30.  
31.         EnableTaggedGUIText("head", false);
32.  
33. }
34.  
35.  
36. static function switcher(){
37.  
38.     EnableTaggedGUIText("head", true);
39.    
40. }
41.  
42. static function off(){
43.  
44.     EnableTaggedGUIText("head", false);
45.    
46. }
47.  

This script ^^ is attached to the GUItext itself.

That all works fine, but as you can see in the switcher script, we also have a function called "off" to switch off our GUIText, and we need to trigger this when we walked away from the object that has the "head1" tag.

Surely this is a straightforward thing to do? Cant seem to use CollisionExit because it doesnt work with character collider. Can anyone suggest a straightforward way of doing this? Tearing my hair out on this one...


Thanks
