Player colliding with object then destroying/killing Player

Questions & Answers
1

I’m extremely new to unity and I’m trying to create a simple prototype just using a sphere (as my player, it has a 3rd person character controller but I also attached a basic sphere collider) and cubes falling from the sky attempting to “squish” the player. I want the player to be destroyed when in comes into contact with the Cube but i’m really struggling with the scripting. At the moment i’m using this:

function OnCollisionEnter(collision : Collision) {

if (collision.gameObject.name == “Player”)

Destroy (collision.gameObject);

}

But it’s not working. Please help =)

Try this:

function OnCollisionEnter(collision : Collision){

if(collision.gameObject.name == ("Player")){

    var playerObj : GameObject = collision.gameObject;

    Destroy(playerObj);

}

}

It works for me when i tried it, add it to youre cubes falling from the sky.
