Physics2D.OverlapPoint

Switch to Manual
public static function OverlapPoint(point: Vector2, layerMask: int = DefaultRaycastLayers, minDepth: float = -Mathf.Infinity, maxDepth: float = Mathf.Infinity): Collider2D;

Parameters

pointA point in world space.
layerMaskFilter to check objects only on specific layers.
minDepthOnly include objects with a Z coordinate (depth) greater than this value.
maxDepthOnly include objects with a Z coordinate (depth) less than this value.

Description

Check if a collider overlaps a point in space.

The optional layerMask allows the test to check only for objects on specific layers.

Although the Z axis is not relevant for rendering or collisions in 2D, you can use the minDepth and maxDepth parameters to filter objects based on their Z coordinate. If more than one collider overlaps the point then the one returned will be the one with the lowest Z coordinate value. Null is returned if there are no colliders over the point.
