Hey I was wondering if there was anyway to trigger a trigger able box collider form script.

I suppose what you could do is make a function that does what you want to do in the trigger… for instance,

function OnTriggerEnter (hit : Collider)
{
   DoStuffs();
}

function DoStuffs()
{
   if (doSomething)
   {
      // do something;
   }
}

That way, you can call DoStuffs() whenever you want.

Or you could just make the OnTriggerEnter function public and call it directly, passing in null or an existing collider reference.

public void OnTriggerEnter ( Collider collider )
{
   // bla
}

public void WhateverFunction ()
{
   OnTriggerEnter ( null );
}

This would also work if it were private and called from within the same class.
