[SOLVED]Need OnTriggerEnter Help

[Ljrnet]

Hi guys,

I’m trying to trigger animations with the function OnTriggerEnter. I want the player to hit the button and trigger the door animation. I have included a little diagram of what I am wanting to do.

I’m using unity 5.2.

I’ve already tried the code below. I put this code on the door parent, with the animation applied to the door parent. But when the player hits the button it doesn’t trigger the animation.

Code:

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
 
public class Door1 : MonoBehaviour {
 
    Animator animator;
    bool doorOpen;
 
    void Start()
    {
        doorOpen = false;
        animator = GetComponent<Animator>();
    }
 
    void OnTriggerEnter(Collider col)
    {
        if (col.gameObject.tag == "Player")
        {
            doorOpen = true;
            DoorControl ("Open");
        }
    }
 
    void DoorControl(string direction)
    {
        animator.SetTrigger (direction);
    }
}

I’ve also tried other code with it attached to the button and the collider set to “is trigger”, but that didn’t work either.

I would truly appreciate any help.

Thanks in advance.

Change it to void OnTriggerStay()
