Close Your name Your email Suggestion* Switch to Manual DescriptionInteger identifying the layer the GameObject is assigned to.
This is the standard integer value which identifies the layer, not the LayerMask. You can use layers for selective rendering from cameras or to ignore Raycasts. Unity generates 32 layers, identified by standard integers from 0 to 31, and reserves some layers for its own systems. Refer to Create functional layers in Unity for a list of predefined layers and how to create your own new ones.
To convert this layer identifier to a LayerMask, refer to Set a layerMask. To obtain the string name of the layer from this layer identifier, use LayerMask.LayerToName. Refer to Layers in the Manual for a comprehensive guide to using layers.
