How to get an object from a list ?

[Jakub Cernicky]

hello I'm doing a game and I'm stuck here, I have a collider box created and if I put a bucket in the collider box, it will be added to the List and when I put it away from the collider box it will be removed from List but I need it to fill with dirt in that collider box and I don't know how I have get the definition of this bucket from that sheet so that it only works for that one bucket in the collider box

I'll upload the script I have here

Thank you for your help

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.UI;

public class SiveController : MonoBehaviour
{
    public GameObject EmptyBucket;
    public GameObject BucketOfWater;
    public GameObject BucketOfDirt;
    public GameObject Dirt;

    List<GameObject> currentCollisions = new List<GameObject>();

    void updateItems()
    {
        // I don't know how to get the definition of a bucket that is added in a list
        //                                ↓
        if (currentCollisions.Contains(        ))
        {
            Debug.Log("EmptyBucket Enter");
        }

        if (currentCollisions.Contains(Dirt))
        {
            Debug.Log("Dirt Enter");
        }

        // I don't know how to get the definition of a bucket that is added in a list
        //                                                                        ↓
        if ((currentCollisions.Contains(Hlina)) && (currentCollisions.Contains(        )))
        {
            Debug.Log("Filling the Bucket");

            EmptyBucket.gameObject.SetActive(false);
            BucketOfWater.gameObject.SetActive(false);
            BucketOfDirt.gameObject.SetActive(true);

            currentCollisions.Clear();
        }
    }


    void OnTriggerEnter(Collider Other)
    {
        currentCollisions.Add(Other.gameObject);

        Debug.Log("Entering" + Other.gameObject.name);

        updateItems();
    }

    void OnTriggerExit(Collider Other)
    {

        currentCollisions.Remove(Other.gameObject);

        Debug.Log("Leaving" + Other.gameObject.name);

        
    }

}

RE: How check if a list is empty

Wouldn't an empty list have 0 items in it? If only there were a way to see how many items there are in a list. Oh wait there is:

List<T>.Count Property (System.Collections.Generic)

Gets the number of elements contained in the List<T>.

docs.microsoft.com

As for checking to see if an item is in a list, you would either need to check by reference, or you would have to inspect each item in the list and see if the attributes of the item match up with what you are looking for.

I've got a feeling that you jumped to quickly into C# and missed the fundamentals of what it means for C# objects being accessed by reference.
