FAQ

Where do I add this script?

OnColliderEnter is a function that can be called from all luascripts as long as the object has a rigidBody and a collider that is NOT set to OnTrigger.

Any way to see which object I collided into?

Yes, just call print(collision.gameObject.name) to get the name of the object you collided with.

Any way to only trigger when I hit something really hard?

Yes, just return when the sqrMagnitude is below a certain value.

local table = {
minimumSqrMagnitute = 2,
}

function table:OnColliderEnter(collision)
if collision.relativeVelocity.sqrMagnitude < self.minimumSqrMagnitute then
return
end

print("I collided really hard!")
end

return Class(nil,nil,table)
