How to write collision event code?

Hi. I am taking a tutorial on basic collisions on youtube, and i dont know much about unity. I tried the OnCollisionEnter function. Monodevelop wouldnt even recognize it as a function. I even copied the exact code. What di I do? Here is the Code:

function OnCollisionEnter(){
    Debug.Log("Hit Something!");
}

scrip

This code looks fine. Are you sure you pasted it into a Javascrip file and not a C# file? Note that both objects must have a collider, and one of the two objects must have a rigidbody for this function to trigger.

 –

You might have to pass it the Collision class for it to work. So: void OnCollisionEnter(Collision col){} Or in your case (Javascript): function OnCollisionEnter(col : Collision){}

 –

Put one into the first person controller and it still wont work.

 –

as in a rigidbody. But i didn't enable gravity because then the object freaks out.

 –

What colliders do you have on the object? If you have more than just one collider (player, rigidbody, physics) that will cause issues
