Add force to the object

Unity Engine
1

Hey guys,

I have some problems for the game that I am trying to make. My character is a ball and I wondering how I can act something like, if the ball goes to a specifiek object like jump object or speed boost…how can I add extra force on that ball object.

Since on OnTriggerEnter() or OnCollisionEnter() is not possible to use the AddForce command…so anyone have idea how else I can make this work?

Here is my code for the ball character:

function OnTriggerEnter(other : Collider) {

   //if deadzone is been entered
   if(other.tag == "DeadZone")
   {
	
   }


	if(other.tag == "Finish")
	{
	
	//play the sound
	other.audio.Play();
	//yield WaitForSeconds(1);
	Application.LoadLevel(nextLevel);
		//Show other level
	Destroy(other.gameObject);
	//if the ring is hit load a new game
	//Application.LoadLevel(nextLevel);
	//if there is no level destory the object
	Destroy(gameObject);

	}
	if(other.tag =="Crystal")
	{
	other.audio.Play();
	yield WaitForSeconds(0.4);
	Destroy(other.gameObject);
	}
	
	if(other.tag =="PowerSpeed")
	{
	//Should give the object extra movement
	}
	
}

Any suggestions or ideas how I can able to make this work is welcome.

if you have a rigidbody attached to your game object, just add a velocity in the direction you want the object to go to.

rigidbody.velocity += direction * force;
