tag

The tag of this game object.

name

The name of the object.

hideFlags

Inherited Functions
ClosestPointOnBounds

The closest point to the bounding box of the attached collider.

Raycast

Casts a Ray that ignores all Colliders except this one.

GetComponent

Returns the component of Type type if the game object has one attached, null if it doesn't.

GetComponentInChildren

Returns the component of Type type in the GameObject or any of its children using depth first search.

GetComponentsInChildren

Returns all components of Type type in the GameObject or any of its children.

GetComponents

Returns all components of Type type in the GameObject.

CompareTag

Is this game object tagged tag?

SendMessageUpwards

Calls the method named methodName on every MonoBehaviour in this game object and on every ancestor of the behaviour

SendMessage

Calls the method named methodName on every MonoBehaviour in this game object.

BroadcastMessage

Calls the method named methodName on every MonoBehaviour in this game object or any of its children.

GetInstanceID

Returns the instance id of the object.

ToString

Returns the name of the game object.

Inherited Messages Sent
OnTriggerEnter

OnTriggerEnter is called when the Collider other enters the trigger.

OnTriggerExit

OnTriggerExit is called when the Collider other has stopped touching the trigger.

OnTriggerStay

OnTriggerStay is called almost all the frames for every Collider other that is touching the trigger.

OnCollisionEnter

OnCollisionEnter is called when this collider/rigidbody has begun touching another rigidbody/collider.

OnCollisionExit

OnCollisionExit is called when this collider/rigidbody has stopped touching another rigidbody/collider.

OnCollisionStay

OnCollisionStay is called once per frame for every collider/rigidbody that is touching rigidbody/collider.

Inherited Class Functions
operator bool

Does the object exist?

Instantiate

Clones the object original and returns the clone.

Destroy

Removes a gameobject, component or asset.

DestroyImmediate

Destroys the object obj immediately. It is strongly recommended to use Destroy instead.

FindObjectsOfType

Returns a list of all active loaded objects of Type type.

FindObjectOfType

Returns the first active loaded object of Type type.

operator ==

Compares if two objects refer to the same

operator !=

Compares if two objects refer to a different object

DontDestroyOnLoad

Makes the object target not be destroyed automatically when loading a new scene.
