I am trying to make a Retro Tenis Game in Unity2D but I have some issues with the colliding system.
My controller does not collide with the walls. It goes through them.
It should stop in the wall like pic1 but it goes through it like pic2.
Can anyone help me, please?

UPDATE#1: I added a RigidBody component but it does not fix it. (pic3)

You shouldn't use the colliding system for this purpose. It would be much better that the script in charge of moving your paddle was able to control its maximum and minimum height too (note that the screen size can change, and the paddles should move at different heights depending on the screen size).
Although if you want to do it with the collision system and "walls" that limit the space of the paddles, both the "walls" and the paddles need to have a correctly positioned BoxCollider2D and the paddles an extra kinematic Rigidbody2D too (as they can move).
Also make sure to move the paddles using physics and not modifying its position with transform.position (see Rigidbody2D.MovePosition)
Edit: Unity2D physics system is rather a complicated topic and difficult to get it well on your own. I'd suggest to learn the basics in the Unity Learning Platform. You could start with this project.
You need add RigidBody2D to your "circle"

Hi I'am new to Unity and I was trying to implement a game using tetris blocks.
The game's goal is to build the highest tower before it collapses. However there is a problem in my implementation which is seen in the picture below.
I achieve the building a tower task by activating the rigidbody gravityscale when it collides with something. With that way it can collapse after touching somewhere not before. But I want to have the flexibility of some collisions. In the situation seen in the picture below, that 'T' block will collide with the point in the red circle before landing safely and gravityscale of the rigidbody will be set. So it will drop but I don't want it to happen becasue the collision area is too small. I want to make it land safely with some flexibility.
I tried to make colliders' size 0.9 but that just disrupts the scale of the world.
Can I do something like this :
If collision happens, check collision area and if the area is lower than lets say 0.1, do not trigger rigidbody gravityscale.
what about using capsulle collider 2D with small radius?
I would like to try and make a game similar to Altos Adventure. I am having trouble starting.
How to set up the terrain so that my character doesnt get stuck?
I simply drew a test sprite for the ground in photoshop. What collider2d should I use?
I use polygon collider and reduce friction in the material. But the character gets stuck, hits small invisible bumbs and it feels awful. The worst part is connecting 2 ground sprites together! The point where they connect is always messy.
I have a question for the future as well. How would I add the endless part of the game?
Would having many "pieces" set up and just spawning them as the player rides down work?
I havent written any code yet as the problem is simply in the physics in my opinion.
Thanks to anyone who takes the time and tries to help!
To move your player use rigid body.AddForce(Vector3 direction, ForceMode forceMode); then create a Physics Material with friction = 0 and put it in your player's collider.
Kinda what the title says, I have a "wall" made out of multiple segments specifically for modular purposes. I have a contactTestBitmask that forces the player to stop moving in the direction of the wall once collided, but, if you slide along the wall to another segment, the player just rolls straight through it. I cannot do a collisionBitmask as the player runs fast enough to "phase" through the walls. I also cannot do collision as my camera and lighting are also dependent on the player's movement and position, and will not interfere with the walls (I think). If anyone could help point me in the right direction to allow me to make solid modular walls, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Figured out the source of my problem, contact IS happening, I just have wonky flags and the system doesn't like that. I need a contact currently happening method, I guess
I am making a 2D Brick Breaker game in Unity.
I have an issue with the scenario when ball hits in between two bricks. I have BoxCollider2D attached to all bricks and a CircleCollider2D attached to the ball. When the ball hits between 2 adjacent bricks, it bounces back in the same direction as if it hit the edge of the brick. There is no edge in between, but two adjacent bricks form a continuous surface. So, the ball should bounce off of the surface (in other direction) instead of bouncing back.
Anyone knows of any solution to tackle this problem? I asked this in the Unity Physics forums but didn't get any answer, so checking if anywhere here might have had this issue.
Thanks,
Mukul
I am guessing this could be the problem:
When your ball is hitting the bricks with a strong force, There is a chance it might move one of the bricks by a very very slight distance, even if the mass of the brick is much heavier.
This movement might cause an uneven surface, which is why the ball bounces back in the same direction.
Try adding a Rigidbody Component on every brick (if you have not done it already), and set its isKinematic property to true.
Let me know if this solves it.
Way 1:
Use one box collider for the wall, but not for every single brick.
This will fix your issue + will optimize your project.
Way 2:
You need to build wall programmaly and colliders in this case must be without spaces between them. This must fix the issue.
Way 3:
Make your own hitting wall logic.
OnColliderEnter you need to get balls velocity.
OnColliderEnd you need to set manually velocity.
Hello everyone I an very new to cocos2d, so I apologize if this is a simple question. I would like to create to sprites that collide when they hit each other.
For instance, one sprite, spriteA, is in a fixed position on the screen. And another sprite, spriteB, is moving around the screen. SpriteB will collide with spriteA. If that doesn't make sense or you don't understand it, tell me and I will elaborate further. Any help is appreciated. Thank YOU!
Try using Chipmunk or Box2d physics systems. These are included with Cocos2d and work by having a physics simulation that updates with every time the graphics change on screen.
The physics simulation will tell you if two objects are overlapping, and will provide physical attributes like weight, slipperiness (friction), speed and direction, which creates reactions like bouncing, sliding, realistic loss of speed and changes of direction on impact.
If you are new to physics simulation, here's a 30 second run down:
Create "bodies" in the physics simulation that represent each graphical sprite
Bodies are usually defined more simply than their graphical counterparts, like a circle, square or simple polygon shape
In order to update the graphics on the screen accurately, first you establish a pixels to meters ratio. Meters are notional (i.e. made up) measurement that is used in the physics sim
Each time the physics simulation "ticks", you update the graphics on screen accordingly
So if a body in the physics sim moves 1 meter, you might transform the pixel sprite 32 pixels
Here's a good tute on collision detection using Box2d.

Its actually very simple:
Just schedule a timer: [self schedule:#selector(checkForCollision:)];
Specify the method: - (void)checkForCollision:(ccTime)dt {}
In the curly braces, make CGRects for each sprite using CGRectMake.
Then in the same method, just call: if (CGRectIntersectsRect) {}
That easy!
Well technically speaking when the 2 sprites interact, or share at least one common point, then they are colliding. I'm a little confused by your question. Are you asking for direction on how to make the sprite move on screen, or are you asking how to handle the actual collision(such as calling a method if they collide)?
