Collider:setSensor
EditSets whether the Collider should be a sensor. Sensors do not collide with other objects, but they can still sense collisions with the collision callbacks set by World:setCallbacks. Use them to trigger gameplay behavior when an object is inside a region of space.
Collider:setSensor(sensor)Arguments
| Name | Type | Description |
| sensor | boolean | Whether the Collider should be a sensor. |
Returns
Nothing
Notes
Sensors are still reported as hits when doing raycasts and other queries. Use tags to ignore sensors if needed.
When a World is created, a set of collision tags can be marked as "static", for performance. Sensors do not detect collision with colliders that have a static tag. Also, if a sensor itself has a static tag, it will not be able to detect collisions with sleeping colliders. If a Collider enters a static sensor and goes to sleep, the exit callback is called and the sensor is no longer able to detect that collider.
Sensors can not use continuous collision detection.
Sensors will never go to sleep.
