Weapon Collision (130285)

Ok so i have a player, a weapon(sword) and an enemy. The sword is attached as a child to the hand bone of the player and has a box collider. I want to detect collisions with the enemy so i can kill it.

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class WeaponCollision : MonoBehaviour {

	void Update () {
	}

	void OnCollisionEnter(Collision col) {
		Debug.Log ("Collision");
		if (col.gameObject.tag == "Enemy") {
			Destroy(col.gameObject);
		}
	}
}

this script is attached to the weapon object, but its not working, the “Collision” is not being logged either.

Does the enemy object have a collider attached to it too?

 –

Yes it has a Capsule Collider attached

 –

does it pick up the collision?

 –

I dont know, how would i check that? run the same script on the enemy object and use Debugger to log?

 –

One of the colliders needs to be tagged "IsTrigger", is that checked on one of the colliders?
