I´m making a simple CAD application on Unity 3D using C# to configure closets. I'm trying to limit the movement of the shelves so you can move them only on the hole, so I have a dragger attached to every piece of the closet I want to move, but obviously they can cross with each other.
I thought I could use the collider system that Unity has to limit this movement but since I never worked with Unity before I´m kinda lost. This is my dragger so far:
mousePosition = new Vector3(Input.mousePosition.x, cubo_tmp.transform.position.y, distance);
objPosition = Camera.main.ScreenToWorldPoint(mousePosition);
objPosition.Set(objPosition.x, cubo_tmp.transform.position.y, cubo_tmp.transform.position.z);
I keep y and z components so it can move only in one direction.
Box Colliders are best for cuboid shaped objects.
In the editor, if you click GameObject > 3d Object > Cube, Unity will add a cube with a Box Collider to your scene:
If you want to add a Box Collider to a GameObject that doesn't have one, click Add Component in the Inspector panel and type in "Box Collider" to find it. It looks like this:
Note: If the IsTrigger box is checked, the Collider acts as a Trigger rather than a Collider.
A GameObject with a Collider will "collide" with any other GameObject that also has a Collider, with a small exception involving 2 Mesh Colliders that are both set to Convex.
EDIT: I think you are able to intersect the objects because you are modifying Transform.position directly in your code. This might override the collision behaviour.
Also Go to Edit > Project Settings > Physics and make sure your layer collision matrix allows collisions for the layers on which your objects are placed.

I make a 2D game in Unity. I have a player with BoxCollider2D and Objects with BoxCollider2D and the player can't go through these Objects like it should but when the player walks from down to the top (topdown PixelRPG) Than he got blocked very early. I will try to show it in the pictures. I tried to change the size of the colliders the layers and more but can't find a solution. ProblemCollision2DChest

From my experience, it looks like you simply need to resize your BoxCollider2D to fit the player.
You can either use the Edit Collider button, and in the Unity viewport you can click and drag to change the size of the collider, or change the Size value in the inspector. Since your collider seems to be too large vertically, change the Y value to be smaller.
I'm developing a simple 2D Unity game (which I'm very new to so sorry if this is a silly question!) in which my player can eat its enemies by colliding with them. This works fine as I'm just selecting the "is trigger" component for the enemies and using this code in my Player class:
private void OnTriggerEnter2D(Collider2D other)
{
Debug.Log("Hit detected");
Destroy(other.gameObject);
transform.localScale += new Vector3(x, y, z);
}
However, this means the colliders placed around the border of my background image aren't stopping the enemies. What's the best fix for this?
I don't understand very well your question. However it seems that your collisions are not working. So, remember that for have collisions actually taking place in your game you need to use colliders and that one of the two elements participating in the collision need to have the rigidbody component.
That will make the physics work in the engine, which triggers dont.
To check if that works you can debug with:
// called on collision
void OnCollisionEnter2D(Collision2D col)
{
Debug.Log("OnCollisionEnter2D");
}
From what I understood, you want only to detect triggers between the player and the enemies, but you still want these to collide with physic objects in your scene, such as background colliders.
One possible way to achieve this is to create a child object for the player object with a collider component with the trigger option set, and attaching a script to it to handle the triggers. Then, with the use of layers to group your player and enemy objects, you can uncheck the collision between them following: Edit -> Project Settings -> Physics 2D: "Layer Collision Matrix".
You can assign a script to any enemy, checking the distance with the player in each frame. Then you can Uncheck "is trigger"
Vector2.Distance
when my objects spawn into world they can move around each other. The only problem is that they can overlap when they move, i.e the sprite of one object moves onto the sprite of the other as show below:

How would I be able to avoid this?
Check if colliders are trigger or remove all components from gameobject and just leave only rigidbody and colliders. Rigidbody and colliders should be of the same type rigidbody 2d collider2d. Hope it helps!
Currently I am working on a networked 2d platform game.
My player is an empty object which serves as a parent to my actual graphics etc. The empty object has a rigidbody (3d) attached to it as it needs to have one in order to use the configurable joint component ( note: I move my player around using this 3d rigid body).The player body however, a child to the graphics, has a box collider 2d attached to it as it after all it is a 2d game and has to collide with other 2d objects.
My platforms have polygon collider 2ds attached to them (which is connected to a platform effector if that is worth mentioning).
Now, even though both my player body (which is a child to graphics which is a child to my player object) and my platforms have 2d colliders on them they do not collide and can simply go inside each other (neither of them is marked as isTrigger).
In order to solve this I thought I would add a rigidbody 2D to the player body and see if that would do anything. Now upon adding the rigidbody 2D collisions did work but as soon as I made the rigidbody 2D have all position and rotation constraints ticked or as soon as I made it kinematic or static it would cease to collide with my platforms. The problem is I need to have the rigidbody 2D be static or not be able to move as I am currently moving my player object using the rigidbody (3d) attached to it and do not want any additional movement of the player body upon colliding with objects.
I know this is quite a lot of information, so if you have any questions or would like further information just comment and I will be quick to respond. Thank you :-)!
Edit:
2d ray casts are also unable to hit the player body box collider 2D
Edit 2:
So to recap:
If either the player body or the platform has a rigidbody 2d that is not static (dynamic) and can move collisions work. However currently I only have a rigidbody 2D on my player body which has to be static though (as explained earlier) as well as a box collider 2d. My platform(s) on the other hand currently only has a polygon collider 2d as I do not see why it would need a rigidbody 2D.
A static collider won't detect the collision with another collider if it doesn't have a rigidbody, if it is static or if it has a kinematic rigidbody. At least one of your two objects needs to not be static and to have a rigidbody which is not kinematic to be correctly detected. So you do need to add a Rigidbody2D to your platform.
When you have a doubt about why a collider wouldn't collide with another one, always refer to this page of Unity's documentation which sums up which kind of collider will collide with another one.
Rigidbody2D can't collide with Rigidbody3D, here's a workaround though

I am working on a Unity 3D game for Oculus and I have problems with making my objects to apply physics on a player. So getting rid of a CharacterController and using something like a rag doll is not an option.
I am using OVRPlayerController, that has a Rigidbody with mass 1 and a box collider on it. My gameObject has a Rigidbody of mass 100, and a box collider. But when the object hits the player it just goes through it, whereas I want it to push the player in x direction.
I tried using onColliderHit but it doesn't even recognize the collision between the player and the object, so I checked box collider on the object to be a trigger and I use OnTriggerEnter() to recognize the collision.
I tried to translate the player's position on collision, but player gets positioned to weird places out of my map for some reason. Here is what I use:
info.transform.Translate(new Vector3( -0.5f, 0.0f, 0.0f));
info.transform.rotation = Quaternion.identity;
I also tried to manually set the x position of the player but this doesn't work, and I know I am not supposed to do it.
I searched for answers for a long long time, so please don't answer to this with something like "oh, have you tried googling it, there are a lot of similar questions" etc.
It should be detecting the collision just fine, as long as one of the box colliders has a non-kinematic (Is Kinematic = false) rigidbody attached.
Make sure Is Trigger is false, and you specified a material for your collider.
Also try messing with the other properties on the rigidbody, such as Collision Detection and Mass. The unity docs indicate that your mass should be no more or less than 100 times that of other rigidbodies.
