6,882 PointsCould you put a trigger collider on the geometry of the fly?
Just putting my thinking out there.
Could you put the collider on the body of the fly, instead of the larger parent object? Would it really make much difference to the game play?
if you did, would it be better to use a sphere collider? or a mesh? How much would this impact performance?
I suppose it is easier on the fly object, if you had the collider on any of the children, you would need to make sure to reference the highest parent (fly) to Destry().

6,882 PointsGreat! I put put a small sphere collider on the Geometry object, set it to Trigger, and added the following script:
The player only Destroys the fly if it touches (very close) the actually visual fly geometry. If you increase the X value of the Geometry's Position, your frog can even move around inside the circle drawn by the fly!
