Player will not Die or Respawn

Question

Hello. I am producing a game where I cannot get a very simple mechanic to work. Basically, in the context of my project (An overhead Bullet Hell shooter produced in 3D); A Big Yellow Cube heads downwards and if the Player Touches it, the player dies and respawns at a set point.

The Coordinates have been set for t$$anonymous$$s respawn point and the Player and Enemy definitely make contact when I run it. But the player does not respawn at the designated point and instead just phases through the big yellow cube to no effect.

Here is the script that I have attatched to the big yellow cube in it's entirety:

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

public class TriggerCollide : MonoBehaviour {

 GameObject player = GameObject.FindWithTag("Player");
 GameObject respawnPoint = GameObject.FindWithTag("Respawn");

 // Use t$$anonymous$$s for initialization
 void Start () {
     
 }

 void onTriggerEnter(Collider other)
 {
     //When player collides with Enemy Object, Should Despawn and Respawn plyaer.
     player.SetActive(false);
     player.SetActive(true);
     player.transform.position = respawnPoint.transform.position;
     //Should Respawn the player on the "Respawn" Object.
 }

}

Not$$anonymous$$ng I have done has managed to get t$$anonymous$$s to work the way I want. I have no idea what to do. Please Help.

Capitalization matters

"OnTriggerEnter"

Not "onTriggerEnter"

TY, this has helped, I've also recieved some advice from a college associate and I have gotten the code working the way I want it.

public class TriggerCollide : MonoBehaviour {

 GameObject player;
 GameObject respawnPoint;

 // Use this for initialization
 void Start () {
     player = GameObject.FindWithTag("Player");
     respawnPoint = GameObject.FindWithTag("Respawn");
 }

  void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other)
 {
     if (other.CompareTag("Player")) //Detects if 'Other' code is of the Player Tag.
     {
         //When player collides with Enemy Object, Should Despawn and Respawn player.
         player.SetActive(false);
         player.SetActive(true);
         player.transform.position = respawnPoint.transform.position;
         //Should Respawn the player on the "Respawn" Object.
     }
 }

}
