Overlapping Objects | For a 2d fighter platformer project

Unity Engine
1

Hello Unity community. I am looking for some guidance on the I stated in the title.

For my game attacking is a major feature. I figured out that I can use onCollisionEnter2d to make projectiles react upon collision with the player object. But what if I want my object to be non boxcollider2d. Like some laser of fire explosion for example. And they still could be triggered upon “colliding” technically overlapping, how can I solve this matter?

Thanks a lot in advance

You can set a collider to be a trigger & use on trigger stay to effect them. It is called per frame while they are inside though so you want to keep track of them being already effected.
