How to resize a collider

Questions & Answers

Hi there,

I am making a game which has text that is read from an xml file and every round it changes. I have a box collider 2d on the text, but I am trying to make it so that the collider is no longer than the text that has been read. Is this possible to do in c#?

Many Thanks
Craig

sure, it’s possible. You can dynamically disable the GameObject with the collider by using GameObject.SetActive(bool) or just destroy it Destroy(GameObject)if you don’t need it anymore.

CurrentBoxCollider.size = new Vector3(mydata,mydata2,mydata3);
//above code is manipulating the collider manually(u calculate the new size)
//But in my last project according to my experiences
//Whenever you add a collider to a Gameobject via script the collider
//Will fit perfectly
//So just destroy the rpev collider and add a new to it

Destroy(gameObject.getComponent<BoxCollider>());
gameObject.AddComponent<BoxCollider>();
