How to Fix a Physics Puzzle Win Firing While the Object Is Still Moving

In a physics puzzle the object must come to rest in the target zone. Triggering on first overlap counts objects that bounce straight back out. Require low velocity sustained inside the zone.

How to fix it

1. Require the body to be at rest

Check that the rigidbody's linear and angular velocity are below a small threshold, not just that it overlaps the goal. A fast pass-through should not count.

2. Sustain the condition

Start a timer when the object is both in-zone and slow. Only fire the win if it stays that way for, say, half a second, so momentary touches do not win.

3. Reset the timer on exit

If the object leaves the zone or speeds up before the timer elapses, reset the timer. This debounces bounces and settling jitter.

Catching the ones you can't reproduce

The hardest version of this to fix is the one you can't reproduce — it only happens on a player's hardware, OS, driver, or save state, under conditions that simply aren't present on your machine. A report that says “it crashed” or “it froze” gives you nothing to act on, so the bug survives release after release while quietly costing you players.

Automatic error capture closes that gap. Each failure arrives with its full stack trace, the device and OS, the build number, and a breadcrumb trail of what the player did right before it broke, so even a failure you have never seen becomes a specific, reproducible issue. Fold identical failures into one signature ranked by how many players each hits, and your worklist sorts itself worst-first instead of arriving as a stream of vague complaints.

This is where a tool like Bugnet earns its place. Its SDK captures every Unity error automatically with the full stack trace plus device, OS, memory, build, and game-state context, folds duplicates into one grouped issue with an occurrence count, and ties each to the build it first appeared on — so you fix the problem that hurts the most players first and confirm it is gone when its signature disappears from the next release.
