What is wrong with my script

All compiler errors have to be fixed before you can enter playmode!
UnityEditor.SceneView:ShowCompileErrorNotification()


using UnityEngine;

public class Player_collision : MonoBehaviour
{
void OnCollisionEnter (UnityEngine.Collision collisionInfo)
{
if (collisionInfo.gameObject.tag) == "obstacle"
{
Debug.Log("we hit an obstacle cap");
}
}


}


can someone explain what's wrong? by the way the dents are where they are meant to be

 

Your if statement is wrong. Your ) is not around the "obstacle"

And please use code tags when posting code.

Honestly, your ide (visual studios or monodevelop) should show you where the error is.

 

Code (CSharp):

1. public class Player_collision : MonoBehaviour
2. {
3.     void OnCollisionEnter (UnityEngine.Collision collisionInfo)
4.     {
5.         if (collisionInfo.gameObject.tag == "obstacle")  //<-- This parenthesis
6.         {
7.             Debug.Log("we hit an obstacle cap");
8.         }
9.     }
10.  
11.  
12. }

 

Just a tip, use the CompareTag method, it is more performant than the Equals sign.
