MonoBehaviour.OnControllerColliderHit(ControllerColliderHit)

Description

OnControllerColliderHit is called when the controller hits a collider while performing a Move.

This can be used to push objects when they collide with the character.

// this script pushes all rigidbodies that the character touches

var pushPower : float = 2.0;
function OnControllerColliderHit (hit : ControllerColliderHit) {
    var body : Rigidbody = hit.collider.attachedRigidbody;
    // no rigidbody
    if (body == null || body.isKinematic)
        return;
        
    // We dont want to push objects below us
    if (hit.moveDirection.y < -0.3) 
        return;
    
    // Calculate push direction from move direction, 
    // we only push objects to the sides never up and down
    var pushDir : Vector3 = Vector3 (hit.moveDirection.x, 0, hit.moveDirection.z);

    // If you know how fast your character is trying to move,
    // then you can also multiply the push velocity by that.
    
    // Apply the push
    body.velocity = pushDir * pushPower;
}
