Sprite not Appearing in Unity 2D Game

I'm creating a 2D Top Down game for practice and I need a little bit of help. For context, it's a 2D Top Down Shooter game, where you can move and shoot enemies. The enemies have a basic radius system where if the player gets within the radius, it'll approach the player.
Now I'm making a game mechanic where the player can hide in a cardboard box, the player can press 'E' and he'll suddenly become a cardboard box, where if the player is in the cardboard box, the enemy doesn't detect him even if the player's within the radius. Yes, just like in Metal Gear. Now I've created the prefabs and everything and functionality-wise, it works perfectly. If you press 'E' the enemy cannot detect you.
Now the small problem is that the cardboard box didn't appear, so it's just the player disappearing entirely. I do not know what caused this problem.
For context, these are my scripts. Feel free to read them, or not :)

{
case "Wall":
Destroy(gameObject);
break;
case "Enemy":
Destroy(gameObject);
other.gameObject.GetComponent<EnemyController>().DestroyEnemy();
break;
}
}
}
I've tried tinkering my scripts, I've tried checking if there are any missing components in the cardboard box game object but to no avail. Although I might be wrong on the Unity part since I'm fairly certain that the script isn't the problem here, again might be wrong.
I appreciate all the help I can get, thank you for reading until here

How to control the curve of a jump mechanic in Unity while using the Rigidbody2D's velocity?

I'm making a platformer controller using the new Input System and trying to control the curve for jumping... I've figured out how to add a damp for the horizontal movement which give the horizonal movement a bit of a slippery feel. But I cannot figure out how to control curve for the Jump. The problem now is I'm using a Player Input Component and Unity Events to control the Move and Jump. And the jump is using rb.velocity.y.
How do I control my Jump curve?
Here is the current curve:
I want to controle the acceleration and deacceleration of the curve:

Experiencing a weird collision bug between box colliders and tilemaps

This is my player movement code:
Footage of bug and inspector elements:
https://imgur.com/a/bmGqL1M
As you can see in this Imgur video, for some reason my player character, and also a pushable crate, can clip into this tilemap for a few pixels. I'm not quite sure why this is happening, since I've added a composite collider2D to the tilemap, to get rid of the very common "getting stuck in tilemap" bug, which isn't the case here, the clipping doesn't actually alter the movement in any way.

Unity collider touch not act on player

Question
What should I do to hold my player on top of ground?
NOTE: it's my first question on unity ever so if you need any sort of code or data please just ask, I try my best to provide you what you need.
Thanks.

It looks like your collider is simply too high. You'll notice that the green box indicating your collider size and position is colliding with the correct spot on the ground. The bottom of it is just touching the top of the ground. You simply need to move the collider down on the player so that the bottom of the green box is at the bottom of the player's sprite.

unity projectile spawns but doesn't pick up velocity?

This is my code does anyone know or can anyone spot why my projectile remains stationary once it's spawned in? the projectile is the prefab shell thanks for your help in advance.
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
public class TankBehaviour : MonoBehaviour
{
public GameObject shellPrefab;
public Transform fireTransform;
private bool isFired = false;
// Use this for initialization
void Start()
{
}
// Update is called once per frame
void Update()
{
float x = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");
float y = Input.GetAxis("Vertical");
transform.position += transform.forward * y;
transform.Rotate(0, x, 0);
if (Input.GetKeyUp(KeyCode.Space) && !isFired)
{
Debug.Log("fire!");
Fire();
}
}
void Fire()
{
//isFired = true;
GameObject shellInstance = Instantiate(shellPrefab,
fireTransform.position,
fireTransform.rotation) as GameObject;
if (shellInstance)
{
shellInstance.tag = "Shell";
Rigidbody shellRB = shellInstance.GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
shellRB.velocity = 15.0f * fireTransform.forward;
Debug.Log("velocity");
}
}
}

It is also generally discouraged to set the velocity of a rigidbody, but you can use the Rigidbody.AddForce() method to add force to a rigidbody. When you just want add force at the start, you can set the force mode in the function to impulse, like this rb.AddForce(Vector3.forward, ForceMode2D.Impulse);
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
public class TankBehaviour : MonoBehaviour
{
public GameObject shellPrefab;
public Transform fireTransform;
private bool isFired = false;
public float bulletSpeed;
void Update()
{
float x = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");
float y = Input.GetAxis("Vertical");
transform.position += transform.forward * y;
transform.Rotate(0, x, 0);
if (Input.GetKeyUp(KeyCode.Space) && !isFired)
{
Debug.Log("fire!");
Fire();
}
}
void Fire()
{
//isFired = true;
GameObject shellInstance = Instantiate(shellPrefab, fireTransform.position, fireTransform.rotation) as GameObject;
if (shellInstance)
{
shellInstance.tag = "Shell";
Rigidbody shellRB = shellInstance.GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
shellRB.AddForce(15f * transform.forward, ForceMode.Impulse);
Debug.Log("velocity");
}
}
}
Hope this helps!
