Trigger
Description
This collection of OverNode represents all the nodes that interact with the physics Unity Trigger system.
GameObjects involved in the collision must contain a Collider component. One must have Collider.isTrigger enabled, and contain a Rigidbody. If both GameObjects have Collider.isTrigger enabled, no collision happens. The same applies when both GameObjects do not have a Rigidbody component.
Trigger Node
The main element of this system consists of a Trigger Node, that fires its execution on detecting a specific Trigger event.
Each Trigger Node must refer to a specific Target GameObject, accordingly equipped with a Unity3D Collider Component.
A Mode parameter can be selected in order to further customize the execution of the node, specifically:
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
Enter | Sets the node to be executed when a physical object enters the Target Collider space |
Stay | Sets the node to be executed when a physical object stays inside the Target Collider space |
Exit | Sets the node to be executed when a physical object exits the Target Collider space |
The Node also exposes some parameters:
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
Other | A reference of the input Unity3D Collider Component of the object colliding with the Target |
OverTriggerListener
For the Node system to communicate to the Unity3D Runtime environment, an OverTriggerListener component must be associated with the Target GameObject.
Its main function is to provide a bridge between the node system and the UnityEngine event system, which handles trigger events automatically.
Trigger Lazy Load
The "Trigger Lazy Load" node is designed to register a trigger event on a GameObject. When the GameObject's collider interacts with another collider in a specified mode (Enter, Exit, Stay), the node triggers an event.
| Property | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
Target | GameObject | The input slot for the GameObject which is monitored for trigger events. |
Other | Collider | The output slot that will output the Collider that interacted with the target GameObject's Collider. |
Mode | Enum (Dropdown) | A dropdown menu that allows selection of the trigger interaction mode: Enter, Exit, or Stay. |
