here is part of my script...it works...except by the time it kicks in it has already collided twice so instead of subtracting 10 hp it subtracts 20...this wouldn't be a big deal except I plan to switch to a hearts system later with much lower numbers

if you want to use this code you will need the following -hp variable -knockback variable -isstunned variable (movement controls must be in an"if(isstuned >= 0)" statment and variable must be set to 1)

//On Collision
IEnumerator OnCollisionEnter(Collision  collision)
{
    //with bandit
    if (collision.gameObject.tag == "Bandit")
    {
       //if bandit is to the right
       if (Physics.Raycast(transform.position,Vector3.right,10))
       {
         //take controls away from the player
         isstuned -= 1;
         //knock player to the left
         rigidbody.velocity = -transform.right * knockback;
         //wait 1 second, minus 10 hp, and then print to console for debugging
         yield return new WaitForSeconds(1);
         hp -= 10;
         print("-10 hp struck by bandit from the right"); //debug
         //give controls back to the player
         isstuned += 1;
       }
       //if bandit is to the left
       if (Physics.Raycast(transform.position,Vector3.left,10))
       {
         //take controls away from the player
         isstuned -= 1;
         //knock player to the right
         rigidbody.velocity = transform.right * knockback;
         //wait 1 second, minus 10 hp, and then print to console for debugging
         yield return new WaitForSeconds(1);
         hp -= 10;
         print ("-10 hp struck by bandit from the left"); //debug
         //give controls back to the player
         isstuned += 1;
       }

    }

}

I hope my notes are informative to those wanting to use this ^_^...(does need a minor fix though so you might want to either wait on a fix or attempt it yourself lol)
