Collision

Collision

Type	Script block
Collider	None
Folder	Control
Ports
Inputs	Before 1st Object
Outputs	Collided 2nd Object Impulse Normal After

Detects collisions of the input object and outputs information about the collision.

Input:

• 1st Object: The object that will send the collision data to this script.

Output:

• Collided: Triggers when the input object collides with another object, including the floor.
• 2nd Object: The object that the input object collided with. It outputs "None" if collided with the floor.
• Impulse: The impact force of the collision (how hard did they collide). Specifically, impulse is a change of momentum of an object.
• Normal: The direction of the impact from the 2nd object to the 1st object.

Notes

• When colliding with multiple objects, only the most forceful collision will be reported.
• Because only one collision at a time can be detected, resulting in inconsistent behaviour, it is recommended to avoid using it for critical elements of the game in favor of other methods.
• If you're overriding physics to move objects (using Set Position) then no collisions will occur.

Examples

Lose if the sphere touches the ground.

Example

Play a sound only if the impulse is big enough.
