been thinking a little more about this one… specifically the “when i want” bit…

those functions get called by the unity engine when it works out there is a collision. If you’re looking to have some logic elsewhere which, for example, asks “am i on the ground?” you’ll need to setup a variable which gets updated by the collision functions above (and they’re respective exit functions etc) so you have something you can check against.

I think the character controller component does something similar with it’s “isGrounded” var. Unity - Scripting API: CharacterController

Hi LeftyRighty ,

How can we add a script to variable object like var CC : CapsuleCollider?

CapsuleColliders are components attached to GameObjects
Scripts are also components attached to GameObjects

if you want to access other components attached to a gameobject in a script have a look at the scripting reference guide pages:
