Detect when a collision has ended? (SOLVED)

[betofantasioso]

Hi defolders,

I’m trying to figure out how to detect when a collision between two objects end.

Is there a message similar to on “collision_response” that informs when two objects are no longer colliding with each other? Or how can I detect it?

Hopefully any one can help me out.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers!

I solved it by making one of my objects a trigger since triggers actually inform when the collision ended.

It’d be nice though if this were also posible with kinematic and dynamic objects though.

Yes, that’s exactly the use case for triggers. They are cheap to use.

It’s perfectly acceptable to have both a kinematic/dynamic object and a trigger object.

That’s a great piece of advice birtzl. I haven’t thought on that possibility. I’m still new with Defold.

Thanks a lot!
