Collider.isTouching for 3D colliders
if (colliderBox.isTouching (col) && col.CompareTag("barrier")) {
score++;
this.GetComponent<Renderer> ().material.color = col.GetComponent<Renderer> ().material.color;
}
if (spriteBox.IsTouching(col) && col.CompareTag("barrier") ) {
Debug.Log (col);
Debug.Log (colliderBox);
SceneManager.LoadScene (mainMenu);
}
Currently in my code, I was using a onTriggerEnter, to detect a collision with an object called 'barrier', but I have had to replace my 2d spriteBox and 2d colliderBox with 3D objects, and now isTouching is not a property of 3D colliders. I can not find a simple replacement. What can I replace them with?

There is no equivalent version of the isTouching function for 3D collision but you can roll your own. When OnTriggerEnter, store both colliders involved in a collection. When OnTriggerExit is called, check for both colliders involved and if already exit in the collection, remove them from the collection. This is what I am doing in this post with the CollisionDetection script.
Attach the CollisionDetection script to the objects that will be colliding.
To check if Collider is touching another Collider, change:
if (colliderBox.isTouching (col) && col.CompareTag("barrier")) { }
to:
if (CollisionDetection.IsTouching (colliderBox.gameObject, col.gameObject) && col.CompareTag("barrier")) { }
You can also add ExtensionMethod for the CollisionDetection class:
public static class ExtensionMethod
{
public static bool IsTouching(this Collider collider, Collider otherCollider)
{
return CollisionDetection.IsTouching(collider.gameObject, otherCollider.gameObject);
}
public static bool IsTouching(this GameObject collider, GameObject otherCollider)
{
return CollisionDetection.IsTouching(collider, otherCollider);
}
}
Now, your if (colliderBox.isTouching (col) && col.CompareTag("barrier")) code should work without changes assuming that colliderBox is a type of Collider or GameObject.

I'm going to have a go with this, thanks! Is it recommended to use 3D colliders on 2D games? I have found some people saying to always use 3D colliders, however for my game it is easier to use 2D ones, but it seems to prohibit me from rotating the way I want (with rigidbody.rotation) to and access all the rigidbody features? Any advice?

No. Use 2D colliders with Sprites/SpriteRenderer. Use 3D colliders for models/MeshRenders. The-something applies to Rigidbody. It must match. I really can't suggest anything more than this until I see the type of game you're making

The image is 2D, it is an endless game where you simple move left and right to avoid objects.
