Módulo Triggers

Particle Systems have the ability to trigger a Callback whenever they interact with one or more Colliders in the Scene. The Callback can be triggered when a particle enters or exits a Collider, or during the time that a particle is inside or outside of the Collider.

Usted puede utilizar el Callback como una simple manera de destruir una partícula cuando entra a un Collider (por ejemplo, para prevenir que las gotas de lluvia penetren los techos), o se puede utilizar para modificar cualquiera o todas las propiedades de las partículas.

The Triggers module also offers the Kill option to remove particles automatically, and the Ignore option to ignore collision events, shown below.

Para utilizar el módulo, primero agregue los Colliders a los cuales usted quiere crear triggers, luego seleccione qué eventos utilizar.

Usted puede elegir trigger (activar) un evento cuando la partícula está:

  • Dentro de los limites del Collider
  • Afuera de los limites del Collider
  • Ingresando a los limites de un Collider
  • Saliendo de los limites de un Collider
Propiedad: Función:
Inside Select Callback if you want the event to trigger when the particle is inside the Collider. Select Ignore for the event not to trigger when the particle is inside the Collider. Select Kill to destroy particles inside the Collider.
Outside Select Callback if you want the event to trigger when the particle is outside the Collider. Select Ignore for the event not to trigger when the particle is outside the Collider. Select Kill to destroy particles outside the Collider.
Enter Select Callback if you want the event to trigger when the particle enters the Collider. Select Ignore for the event not to trigger when the particle enters the Collider. Select Kill to destroy particles when they enter the Collider.
Exit Select Callback if you want the event to trigger when the particle exits the Collider. Select Ignore for the event not to trigger when the particle exits the Collider. Select Kill to destroy particles when they exit the Collider.
Radius Scale This parameter sets the particle’s Collider bounds, allowing an event to appear to happen before or after the particle touches the Collider. For example, you may want a particle to appear to penetrate a Collider object’s surface a little before bouncing off, in which case you would set the Radius Scale to be a little less than 1. Note that this setting does not change when the event actually triggers, but can delay or advance the visual effect of the trigger.
- Enter 1 for the event to appear to happen as a Particle touches the Collider
- Enter a value less than 1 for the trigger to appear to happen after a Particle penetrates the Collider
- Enter a value greater than 1 for the trigger to appear to happen after a Particle penetrates the Collider
Visualize Bounds This allows you to display the Particle’s Collider bounds in the Editor window.

Inside the Callback, use ParticlePhysicsExtensions.GetTriggerParticles() (along with the ParticleSystemTriggerEventType you want to specify) to determine which particles meet which criteria.

El ejemplo de abajo causa que las partículas se vuelvan rojas a medida que ingresan al Collider, y luego verdes a medida que salen de los limites del Collider.

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;

[ExecuteInEditMode]
public class TriggerScript : MonoBehaviour
{
    ParticleSystem ps;

    // these lists are used to contain the particles which match
    // the trigger conditions each frame.
    List<ParticleSystem.Particle> enter = new List<ParticleSystem.Particle>();
    List<ParticleSystem.Particle> exit = new List<ParticleSystem.Particle>();

    void OnEnable()
    {
        ps = GetComponent<ParticleSystem>();
    }

    void OnParticleTrigger()
    {
        // get the particles which matched the trigger conditions this frame
        int numEnter = ps.GetTriggerParticles(ParticleSystemTriggerEventType.Enter, enter);
        int numExit = ps.GetTriggerParticles(ParticleSystemTriggerEventType.Exit, exit);

        // iterate through the particles which entered the trigger and make them red
        for (int i = 0; i < numEnter; i++)
        {
            ParticleSystem.Particle p = enter[i];
            p.startColor = new Color32(255, 0, 0, 255);
            enter[i] = p;
        }

        // iterate through the particles which exited the trigger and make them green
        for (int i = 0; i < numExit; i++)
        {
            ParticleSystem.Particle p = exit[i];
            p.startColor = new Color32(0, 255, 0, 255);
            exit[i] = p;
        }

        // re-assign the modified particles back into the particle system
        ps.SetTriggerParticles(ParticleSystemTriggerEventType.Enter, enter);
        ps.SetTriggerParticles(ParticleSystemTriggerEventType.Exit, exit);
    }
}
