Make a prefab gameobject trigger on dropping gameobject upon it

Questions & Answers

Hi!

I wonder if it’s possible to have a prefab/gameobject to trigger when another object is dropped on it. Like in this image:

I have all these placeholder where to drop other objects. I need to be able to receive the dropped object and put it in a local property (lifeLine). Would that be possible?

This is just my test code so far:

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class LifelinePlaceholder : MonoBehaviour {

	public GameObject lifeLine;
	public string Name;
	// Use this for initialization
	void Start () {
		Debug.Log ("Yeah!");
	}
	
	// Update is called once per frame
	void Update () {
	
	}

	void OnMouseUp()
	{
		Debug.Log (Name);
		//Debug.Log ("foobar");
	}

	void OnTriggerEnter2D(Collider2D other) {
		Debug.Log(other.gameObject);
	}
	
	void OnCollisionEnter2D(Collision2D other){
		Debug.Log(other.gameObject);
	}  
}

Thanks in advance!
