Title: checking for 2 or more collisions at the same time
Post by: Splankton on March 16, 2014, 02:36:34 PM

Hi,
Is there a efficient way of using bools or something to detect up to 3 collisions at the same time?
So if I have obj1, obj2 and ob3, moving at random times towards a wall, each has its own collider, how can I check for 2 or 3 collisions at the same time? I have one FSM on each obj with a trigger and set bool and a FSM on the wall that checks for the collisions.

Hi,

you need to maintain a high level fsm dealing with counting these triggers. so each gameobject will send an event "I HAVE BEEN TRIGGERED" or something, this high level fsm catchs it and keep counting and act based on this counter.

bye,

Thanks Jean, makes sense but it's really tricky to get it working. I'll keep at it.
