#triggering animations
cold karma
making a thread here
so, let's look at your code
It looks like this detects when your collider overlaps with the player.
so, if you put this onto a pressure plate, it would run when the player bumps into the pressure plate's trigger collider
It then sets a flag on its own animator (not on the player's)

Did we ever actually get the inspector of the object that this is colliding with
cold karma
no, but I'd like to make sure I understand what the intent is here
it sounds like this component got moved
lavish obsidian
done that first , and said collided with "collider", and changed the code for it to the car , now it says collided with "cube"

simple animation when player enters trigger
cold karma
You can't randomly move stuff around until your game works. You need a clear picture.

simple animation when player enters trigger
Play an animation on what when it enters a trigger on what
cold karma
An animaton on who? The player? An object?
lavish obsidian
an animation on an UI text
cold karma
Okay, so you want to make some text change when the player walks into a trigger zone.
cold karma
The PlayMyAnimation component should be attached to the same object as your trigger collider, then.
lavish obsidian
thaat is the animation
cold karma
(and it should not be attached to the player)
lavish obsidian
yes , that is what i did first
redoing it now
this is the game btw , the car is the player , the cube is the trigger
cold karma
Once you do that, check what object is getting logged.
lavish obsidian
car inside: log-Entered trigger with: Collider
car outs: log-Exited trigger with: Collider
cold karma
Okay, you need to find the object
here's a shortcut, though
Debug.Log("Entered triggered with: " + collider.gameObject.name, collider.gameObject);
The second argument to Debug.Log is the "context"
it can be any unity object
When you click on the log entry, you'll be taken to the context object

Don't use the word collider for a variable name Unity thinks that's an old depracated field.
lavish obsidian
```cs
Debug.Log("Entered triggered with: " + collider.gameObject.name, collider....
then how
cold karma
oh, it was named other, wasn't it?
Use other, then
your code looks like
void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other) {
}
I was thinking of
void OnTriggerEnter(Collider collider) {
}
Use whatever name you gave the parameter (other, in your case)
cold karma
In the ancient past, there were properties like collider and light and rigidbody that existed by default. They're long gone now, but Unity still tries to upgrade them into GetComponent calls.
That's why you got that message.
glass venture
btw this is the message
So, this object is colliding with something named "Cube Collider". Show the updated code, and show the inspector of "Cube Collider"
When you select it, it should highlight that object in the hierarchy for you
lavish obsidian
wrong code but found the original "collider" , it was in the car body collider
have you come up with something ,sorry for wasting your time btw
glass venture
have you come up with something ,sorry for wasting your time btw
I'm still waiting for you to show the inspector of the object you hit
lavish obsidian
ok
lavish obsidian
I'm still waiting for you to show the inspector of the object you hit
bro this is it
this is the thing that is hitting the car
lavish obsidian
glass venture
Okay, so now that matches the message, but you've cropped out the tag you're looking for
Does this object have the tag you are looking for
lavish obsidian
not cube collider i said the code was wrong , my bad for that but the only thing that is hitting is the car
1 sec
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SHIT
IT WAS THAT SIMPLE
3 HOURS I JUST NEEDED TO CHECK THE THING WITH PLAYER
BRO I DON'T KNOW HOW TO THANK YOU
glass venture
Yes that is why I said in my very first message to you that you should check what object you're colliding with and see if it has the tag "Player"
lavish obsidian
idk bro i'm new
