hi guys,

So i’m making a game similair to flappyBird and whenever you trough the pipes you get a point. The problem is sometimes my player hits the box twice. it gets two piont instead of one. So i want to disable my boxcollder2d for a second after it gets hit by my player. The boxcollider2d are in a loop so they can’t be disabled forever.

Code i used for my collider2d to trigger:

void OnTriggerEnter2D ( Collider2D collider )
{
    if( collider.CompareTag("Player") )
    {
        PlaySound(0);
        Scores.AddPoint();
    }
}

You could try this:

So it’s like:

void OnTriggerEnter2D(Collider2D collider)
{
    if(collider.tag=="Player"){
    PlaySound(0);
    Scores.AddPoint();
    GetComponent<BoxCollider2D> ().enabled = false;
    StartCoroutine(EnableBox(1.0F));
}
  
IEnumerator EnableBox(float waitTime)
{
    yield return new WaitForSeconds(waitTime);
    GetComponent<BoxCollider2D> ().enabled = true;
}

I feel like there is a better option to handle this situation, maybe someone will tell you, but this should work too.
