Description

Properties

center	The center of the sphere in the object's local space.
radius	The radius of the sphere measured in the object's local space.

Properties

attachedArticulationBody	The articulation body the collider is attached to.
attachedRigidbody	The rigidbody the collider is attached to.
bounds	The world space bounding volume of the collider (Read Only).
contactOffset	Contact offset value of this collider.
enabled	Enabled Colliders will collide with other Colliders, disabled Colliders won't.
isTrigger	Specify if this collider is configured as a trigger.
material	The material used by the collider.
sharedMaterial	The shared physic material of this collider.
gameObject	The game object this component is attached to. A component is always attached to a game object.
tag	The tag of this game object.
transform	The Transform attached to this GameObject.
hideFlags	Should the object be hidden, saved with the Scene or modifiable by the user?
name	The name of the object.

Public Methods

ClosestPoint	Returns a point on the collider that is closest to a given location.
ClosestPointOnBounds	The closest point to the bounding box of the attached collider.
Raycast	Casts a Ray that ignores all Colliders except this one.
BroadcastMessage	Calls the method named methodName on every MonoBehaviour in this game object or any of its children.
CompareTag	Is this game object tagged with tag ?
GetComponent	Gets a reference to a component of type T on the same GameObject as the component specified.
GetComponentInChildren	Gets a reference to a component of type T on the same GameObject as the component specified, or any child of the GameObject.
GetComponentInParent	Gets a reference to a component of type T on the same GameObject as the component specified, or any parent of the GameObject.
GetComponents	Gets references to all components of type T on the same GameObject as the component specified.
GetComponentsInChildren	Gets references to all components of type T on the same GameObject as the component specified, and any child of the GameObject.
GetComponentsInParent	Gets references to all components of type T on the same GameObject as the component specified, and any parent of the GameObject.
SendMessage	Calls the method named methodName on every MonoBehaviour in this game object.
SendMessageUpwards	Calls the method named methodName on every MonoBehaviour in this game object and on every ancestor of the behaviour.
TryGetComponent	Gets the component of the specified type, if it exists.
GetInstanceID	Returns the instance id of the object.
ToString	Returns the name of the object.

Static Methods

Destroy	Removes a GameObject, component or asset.
DestroyImmediate	Destroys the object obj immediately. You are strongly recommended to use Destroy instead.
DontDestroyOnLoad	Do not destroy the target Object when loading a new Scene.
FindAnyObjectByType	Retrieves any active loaded object of Type type.
FindFirstObjectByType	Retrieves the first active loaded object of Type type.
FindObjectOfType	Returns the first active loaded object of Type type.
FindObjectsByType	Retrieves a list of all loaded objects of Type type.
FindObjectsOfType	Gets a list of all loaded objects of Type type.
Instantiate	Clones the object original and returns the clone.

Operators

bool	Does the object exist?
operator !=	Compares if two objects refer to a different object.
operator ==	Compares two object references to see if they refer to the same object.

Messages

OnCollisionEnter	OnCollisionEnter is called when this collider/rigidbody has begun touching another rigidbody/collider.
OnCollisionExit	OnCollisionExit is called when this collider/rigidbody has stopped touching another rigidbody/collider.
OnCollisionStay	OnCollisionStay is called once per frame for every collider/rigidbody that is touching rigidbody/collider.
OnTriggerEnter	When a GameObject collides with another GameObject, Unity calls OnTriggerEnter.
OnTriggerExit	OnTriggerExit is called when the Collider other has stopped touching the trigger.
OnTriggerStay	OnTriggerStay is called almost all the frames for every Collider other that is touching the trigger. The function is on the physics timer so it won't necessarily run every frame.
