Unity5 comes with new PointEffector2D<\/a><\/p>\n

How to use it?
\n– Add sprite to scene
\n– Add CircleCollider2D (or some other 2D collider)
\n– Enable: [x] Trigger *Note: Effector works without trigger enabled also, but only when other object is touching the collider.
\n– Enable [x] Used by Effector
\n– Add PointEffector2D component
\n– Adjust Force magnitude (if it doesnt seem to affect enough, negative values will attract<\/strong> and positive values will repel<\/strong> objects away)<\/p>\n

Then just add other objects that the effector will affect:
\n– Add sprite
\n– Add rigidbody2D
\n– Add CircleCollider2D (or some other 2D collider)<\/p>\n

Image#1: Point effector, note the circle collider radius is adjusted, that is the area it affects.<\/p>\n

\"point_effector2d_1\"<\/p>\n

—<\/p>\n

Image#2: normal object with collider2D and rigidbody2D, when it enters point effector area, it gets affected by it<\/p>\n

\"point_effector2d_2\"<\/p>\n

—<\/p>\n

Results for the settings above:<\/p>\n
