Collision Sensor

A Collision Sensor works like a “touch sensor” but can also filter by property or material. Only objects with the property/material with that name will generate a positive pulse upon collision. Leave blank for collision detection with any object.

Note

Soft Bodies

The Collision sensor cannot detect collisions with soft bodies. This is a limitation in Bullet, the physics library used by the Game Engine.
