[image] Scripts with OnCollision events are on two rigidbodies shown in the picture. Kinematic and Non kinematic rigidbody expect to receive collision events with other dynamic rigidbodies. Does colliders parented to kinematic rigidbody are part of non kinematic rigidbody’s compound collider?

Parenting does not change physics collision behaviour. So in effect you have a Static Collider (Collider without a Rigidbody) and a Dynamic Collider. Thus according to the matrix you will receive collision events on scripts attached to the gameobjects these colliders are on. But this child collider…

[image] Unity - Scripting API: Collider.OnCollisionEnter(Collision) OnCollisionEnter is called when this collider/rigidbody has begun touching another rigidbody/collider. Sorry, forgot to specify that scripts with OnCollision events are on two rigidbodies. Ki…
