Why is the fly not getting destroyed?

the U has to be lower case so it should be like this:

public class FlyPickup : MonoBehaviour {

hope this helps!

An answer for future generations :) , make sure that you don't make changes to the code while in "Play mode" since they will not be saved. The first time I created the FlyPickup script, I did it in play mode by accident. When I left Play mode, the FlyPickup script was no longer a component to the Fly object. All the code was right and the script existed in the script folder but it was not a component of the Fly object.

If you have this issue, go to the Fly Object and make sure the Fly Pickup (Script) is listed as a component in the Inspector. If not, delete the script in the script folder and Add the Component again.

I had the same problem and it was fixed by re adding the script component to the fly inspector

Thanks for the answer, but it did not help.

So what's wrong then? Help me please!

I can see no problem with your code, so I think you might have un-checked a parameter by accident. Make sure that the Player's tag is "Player" and look at the Fly inspector to make sure that the "Is Trigger" box is checked.

If it still doesn't work, restart Unity. If it doesn't work again, try copy and pasting my code:

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

public class flyPickup : MonoBehaviour
{
    void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other)
    {
        if(other.CompareTag("Player"))
        {
            Destroy(gameObject);
        }
    }
}

Thanks, but unfortunately it still does not work, the player tag and check mark is worth it, and your code is copied and pasted. I do not know what to do(

Yauheni Kuzmich - This is likely something wrong in the editor or another script, because the code looks correct to me.

Some things to check:

• Is the script attached to the correct GameObject?
• Does the filename match the class name? This is case sensitive.
• Do you see any errors in the Console window?
• Does the tag named in the script "Player" match the tag in the editor? This is also case sensitive.

Solved: Change the name of the file of the FlyPickup to something else...I changed it to FlyPicking and it works now...Some error in unity saying that FlyPickup is already defined in global space.I also had no error in the code.It will work just change the file name

I tried everything that is suggested here but still i have the same issue, the fly is not getting destroyed.

On your code you are missing the space needed when using the parenthesis. you have this: OnTriggerEnter(Collider other) instead of this: OnTriggerEnter (Collider other)

also your if statement shows the same if(other...... if (other......

I hope this helps and sorry for not giving a more specific answer, I am just starting courses here at treehouse and I am not yet familiar with all the names for the different functions.
