If those objects were created correctly

[fallen nebula]

No, i spawn/setOrigin an entity, say box, which has collider, and i want to know wether it overlaps with anything

[carmine cipher]

You understand that a colliders exists to stop objects from intersecting right?

[fallen nebula]

Yes, ok, if there's no collider, but just meshobject?

[carmine cipher]

Depends on the shape of the object.

[fallen nebula]

trimesh

[carmine cipher]

Lol

In your dreams

There's no default functionality for that

[fallen nebula]

that is the answer i was looking for

[carmine cipher]

Your only option is query sphere or bounding box

What's your use case?

[fallen nebula]

when i'm "carrying" an object check wether it overlaps with anything

[carmine cipher]

There might be a couple more. I don't remember.

[fallen nebula]

yea, i was hoping that there's more to that than sphere/bb query

[carmine cipher]

What's is your use case?

[fallen nebula]

at least i won't spend a week trying to find what's nonexistent

[fallen nebula]

when i'm "carrying" an object to check wether it overlaps with anything before "placing" it

[carmine cipher]

That's very vague

You're creating object placement stuff?

[fallen nebula]

in runtime

[carmine cipher]

Been there done that

There should never be a point that they intersect with anything

[fallen nebula]

say object is attachet to player's camera and can be placed with snaptoground

[carmine cipher]

Colliders exists to prevent that

[fallen nebula]

what if it's a static object? it interacts with characters by moving them but it does not care about other static objects

[carmine cipher]

Name one vanilla object that does that?

[fallen nebula]

TVSet_01

[carmine cipher]

I'll take a look at it

[fallen nebula]

Again, in my case it is not spawned in a proper way, it gets teleported to the point say 1 meter in front of the player's camera

[carmine cipher]

Works just fine in my placement mod

[fallen nebula]

do you "spawn" it or move?

is that your personal utility mod?

Viddo taking forever to upload.

video*

[fallen nebula]

is it still uploading?

[carmine cipher]

It's done now

[fallen nebula]

yeah, works now

i see, are you using vanilla preview class or made that from scratch?

[carmine cipher]

No preview. i'm spawning the prefab that I want to place and changing the meshes material.

[fallen nebula]

so you are basically spawning new entity

[carmine cipher]

Red or green depending on if its place-able or not

[fallen nebula]

so what are your conditions for not-placeable?

bbox query?

[carmine cipher]

No

im doing a trace

[fallen nebula]

GetCursorTargetWithPosition?

[carmine cipher]

No

[fallen nebula]

what does it do if you look at say the middle of the wall, would it make it not-placeable? Sorry for being pain in a butt

[carmine cipher]

You can't "look" at the middle of anything. That's not how traces work.

[fallen nebula]

still i have somewhat different usecase, i am to move already existing entity, placed in the world editor

thanks anyway

[carmine cipher]

It doesn't matter. The still have colliders and shouldn't ever intersect. Your logic is wrong.

They*

You're manually setting their position as opposed to using a trace, thus allowing intersection. That's not how you should be doing it.
