[Unity] Adding Collider to Bounding Box/Bone Component

zace

Hey,

So we've just started using Spine for our project and can get the sprite into the scene (step 1 complete!!)

Now I'm trying to get a specific bounding box/ Bone Component (Can't get either at the moment, more than happy for an example on either ATM) and add a box collider to it.

Can someone give me code example or point me in the direction of a code example on the net?

Thanks.

once you have your sprite in scene, create a blank game object and drag a BoneComponent onto it. Give it a reference to the SkeletonRenderer or SkeletonAnimation and select the bone you want from the drop down in the BoneComponent Inspector, done.

As for bounding box, are you talking about Spine "Bounding Box" that you apply in the Spine Editor?

Hi Mitch,

I don't really know what I meant with the bounding box but will just ignore that for the moment.

I can't seem to drag a BoneComponent onto a GameObject at all. Every time I create a SpineRenderer it comes up a a really small box that is not attached to anything.

That is counter to "So we've just started using Spine for our project and can get the sprite into the scene (step 1 complete!!)" ... so I don't really know where your problem starts.

What version of Unity are you using?

Please type the precise steps you've used to produce whatever problem you're having.

Hmm OK.

Maybe I'm a bit more lost than I thought.

I followed the drag and drop unity tutorial on the website and managed to get the character into the Scene by creating a Spine SkeletonAnimation

What I'm trying to do now is add a BoxCollider2D to the arm that is holding the axe.

Sorry if I've been a bit unclear.

Makes sense now 🙂

Create an Empty GameObject and parent it to your root sprite object. Drag the BoneComponent script onto it and there will be a popup selector to choose which bone or node you want it to follow. Add a BoxCollider or whatever other collider you want to this object.
