Howdy, Howdy, Howdy! It's time for a quick video on Clicking GameObjects. This is a common but sometimes difficult thing to do in your Unity Project.

Do keep mindful of any objects that may block the raycast! I had a canvas with components that I animated out of my screen, but they kept on blocking the raycast. I added "deactivate raycast target" at the end of the animation and solved the "mystery". Still, I must admit, I have gone bonkers until I finally realized what it was! DX

That's a really good Interactable objects approach! Specially combined with UnityEvent

Thank you, and exactly! It's incredibly versatile.

Can you please clarify how to select an object using a gamepad controller? I'm currently in the process of setting up my input systems for the gamepad, but I'm unsure of how to accomplish this task. Thank you for your assistance!

thanks for the video, when using this technique with UI toolkit in unity version 2021.3.24 i had the problem of not being able to select any game objects, only PanelSettings were being selected. i solved this by setting the picking mode of the root visual element to Ignore in the UI Builder

This is a great tip Andrew!. Thanks. It's been a while :-) I'd also like to know your take on custom graphic raycasters. Eg: Projecting a UI to a curved object (probably with render texture) and getting the raycast input to convert to a UI input. Mainly in VR

@AndrewMakingAnything Жыл бұрын

I haven't really created my own raycaster before. But, I'm pretty sure you can! I also have some experience with the Curved UI Asset. Technically, you may be able to use the existing Ray Interactor from XRI, a Custom Event System, and a visual element to bend the UI.

This is so much better than using annoying raycasting. Thx so much!!1

Hi! Thank you for great tip! However, as a beginner, I suffered a lot in implementing it. Could you please share or show in your tutorial MaterialApplier script :( In trying to make it on my own, I got completely lost

@AndrewMakingAnything Жыл бұрын

It's just a simple example script and not necessary for the implementation. You can easily just put debug statements instead.

@ImKyleConway Күн бұрын

I've set up the script and it works great, however I am trying to use this to inspect items but when I adjusted the main camera's near clipping plane, it no longer worked. Anyone know why?

Thank you! BTW, I had a problem with code generted mesh, it did not fire the events until you add collider (MeshCollider in my case), then it works.

@rd88ify 4 ай бұрын

Thanks! This resolved my issue. In my case I had to add a Box collider to my 3D game object

@ms.awesome 10 ай бұрын

okay so im using Cursor.lockState = CursorLockMode.Locked; because my game is in first person but this prevents being able to click on the object like this! Any way to fix it or workaround it?

@AndrewMakingAnything 10 ай бұрын

There's some code in the Event System that prevents events if the cursor is locked if I remember correctly. There isn't an easy workaround, but you may be able to copy the script into a new file and make the necessary edits.

@mast1665 11 ай бұрын

Are there any more resources on this? I just started my unity journey and cant quite get my head around this system. The Events seem to fire endlessly, not only when (for example) clicking on the GameObject I added this script too... No matter where I move/click the mouse. The script answers always.

@AndrewMakingAnything 11 ай бұрын

Not exactly! However, feel free to join the Discord, and we'll see if we can figure it out.

Thought this would really easy but magically it's not working, followed the tutorial the exact same and followed other issued people have had but it's just simply not returning a debug on click at all

@appleseedgames6934 10 ай бұрын

Solution: Cursor.lockState isn't compatible with it. Pretty making this entirely useful except for a handful of cases, don't waste your time with this
