Title: How to make GUITexture detect collision?
Post by: warwind10 on December 08, 2011, 01:04:35 AM

I want to make a GUITexture that would detect collision with another GUITexture. I've been trying since yesterday but with no luck :( can someone help me?

a texture cannot collide with something...only a collider. Create collider components for each object and use the collider volumes to detect collision.

Colliders are the way to go. You could try to detect overlapping rectangles but it would probably not be as robust as Unity's built-in collision system.

If you decide to build your own, I'd recommend writing a couple of simple actions: GetGUIElementRect and RectsOverlap. These do seem generally useful, so I'll add them to the next update...
