[Question] Layers and Tags Collider question

[Enceos]

Is there a layer or a tag which will make a collider mouse clickable but without any physics calculations and collisions in flight?

I too am interested in this.  And the reverse (physics interactions but not mouse-clickable).

 

As far as I'm aware it would require alterations to the KSP 'collision layers' matrix when the game is compiled, as well as defining the new layers (which AFAIK none of it can be done at runtime).

Looks like we're pushing the boundaries of what can be done on our end.

Hi , don't know if of any help in your quest but Kerbal Konstructs has an animate on click module for statics, that works as it suggests, click the collider and the animation or whatever starts.  May be useless but worth a look maybe.

@SpannerMonkey(smce) I believe it uses the same collider which you can stand your kebal on. If I'm wrong and a kerbal passes through, then it's exactly what I'm looking for.

Trigger collider:

mouse clickable (check)

no collisions (check)

Well, it will call OnTriggerEnter, but it is really cheap if there is no code there.

@flywlyx I tried the trigger collider before, but it still has collisions when on layer 0.
