void TriggerData::onEnterTrigger(Trigger trigger, GameBase obj)

Called when an object enters the volume of the Trigger instance using this TriggerData .

Parameters:

• trigger – the Trigger instance whose volume the object entered
• obj – the object that entered the volume of the Trigger instance

void TriggerData::onLeaveTrigger(Trigger trigger, GameBase obj)

Called when an object leaves the volume of the Trigger instance using this TriggerData .

Parameters:

• trigger – the Trigger instance whose volume the object left
• obj – the object that left the volume of the Trigger instance

void TriggerData::onTickTrigger(Trigger trigger)

Called every tickPeriodMS number of milliseconds (as specified in the TriggerData ) whenever one or more objects are inside the volume of the trigger. The Trigger has methods to retrieve the objects that are within the Trigger’s bounds if you want to do something with them in this callback.

Parameters:trigger – the Trigger instance whose volume the object is inside

Fields

bool TriggerData::clientSide
