Triggering Reference

How do you get a reference to the triggering object? I have setup a trigzone and want to retrieve a reference for the object responsible for the trigger. This object is added to the game dynamically.

GetActionRef

The Man, thanks DragoonWraith, I thought it would be something simple. I am updating the article "See Also" section for both OnTrigger and GetActionRef.

BlockType Behaviour

It would appear that this function behaves like a GameMode block in that it won't run in other modes (MenuMode). I tried to use this function to circumvent an effectshader called on an object in GameMode from not being run in other modes. I needed a seperate script for this due to the dynamic nature of the object I was adding. I also needed a way to retrieve a reference to the dynamic object inside the seperate script so I thought creating a TrigZone and using an OnTrigger block would be the end of my problems, obviously not. OnLoad would work perfectly but I cannot see way to run OnLoad on a dynamic reference.
