0 | How can I combine my scrolling effect with the vertex lit shader? I want my shader to work in both Forward and VertexLit rendering modes. I'd written a texture scrolling shader, but I also want to consider lighting which is produced by Vertex lit shader. I can't add my effect directly in the vertex lit shader, so I'd created 2 passes the lighting one and the effect one. Here's my code now SubShader Tags "RenderType" "Opaque" "LightingMode" "Vertex" Pass Name "Hardware lighting pass" Tags "LightingMode" "Vertex" Zwrite On Cull Back Material Diffuse Color Lighting On At the second pass we'we turned the multiplicative blending on to combine our texture effect with the ightin that has been couputed at the previous pass. Pass Name "Effect applying pass" Tags "LightingMode" "Vertex" If you're change this, you must then change the light calculation algorithm Blend One DstColor Lighting Off Cull Back CGPROGRAM pragma vertex vert pragma fragment frag texture samplers uniform sampler2D MainTex uniform sampler2D AlphaMask uniform sampler2D ManaTexture uniform sampler2D Noise float values uniform float ManaFloatSpeed uniform float ShinessSpeed struct VertexInput float4 pos POSITION0 float4 col COLOR0 float4 uv TEXCOORD0 struct FragmentInput float4 pos POSITION0 float4 col COLOR0 half2 uv TEXCOORD0 In the vertex shader we're just applied MVP transform to our object FragmentInput vert (VertexInput i) FragmentInput o o.pos mul(UNITY MATRIX MVP, i.pos) o.uv i.uv.xy o.col i.col return o 1) Sample our fancy texture to get the pixel color 2) Get the color value of scrolled pixel of the noise texture 3) Set the alpha channel of an output color value to prevent glow at the textured areas half4 frag(FragmentInput i) COLOR0 float4 col i.col tex2D( MainTex, i.uv) Now reading from the separate mask, later it will be col.a by default (this instruction will desappear) col.a tex2D( AlphaMask, i.uv).r Epsilon to prevent dx9 11, and GLES tolerance pass (not 0.0f) if(col.a gt .0001f) Sample two textures and get the value from the alpla layer float4 tl1 tex2D( ManaTexture, float2(i.uv.x, i.uv.y ( Time.y ManaFloatSpeed))) float4 tl2 tex2D( ManaTexture, float2(i.uv.x, i.uv.y ( Time.y ( ManaFloatSpeed 2)))) float alphaValue tex2D( Noise, float2((i.uv.x Time.y ShinessSpeed), (i.uv.y Time.x))).r return half4((tl1 tl2).rgb, alphaValue) else return col ENDCG The problem is...

0 | Rotate meshes with different pivots, equality If I have multiple equal meshes but with different pivots and I make a rotation on the first, is there a way to replicate this rotation to all meshes using a rotation Matrix? For example, if I have a cube, one with it's pivot in the center and another with the pivot outside of the mesh, how can I rotate the first one 90 degrees on the X axis and use it's rotation Matrix to have the second model rotate on itself and not on his pivot? Assuming that when I pass on the rotation matrix to other meshes I can't pass the vector of the pivot, is this possible? |
0 | Why the rotation using the Coroutine is rotating but the object is in slant ? and how to rotate it with Coroutine non stop? using System.Collections using System.Collections.Generic using UnityEngine public class Spin MonoBehaviour public Vector3 targetRotation public float duration public bool spinInUpdate false Start is called before the first frame update void Start() if (spinInUpdate false) StartCoroutine(LerpFunction(Quaternion.Euler(targetRotation), duration)) Update is called once per frame void Update() if (spinInUpdate true) transform.Rotate(new Vector3(0, 1, 0)) IEnumerator LerpFunction(Quaternion endValue, float duration) float time 0 Quaternion startValue transform.rotation while (time lt duration) transform.rotation Quaternion.Lerp(startValue, endValue, time duration) time Time.deltaTime yield return null transform.rotation endValue slant I mean this is how it's rotating with the Coroutine the small cube that rotate is in slant When using the Update way it's rotating fine and this is how it should rotating also with the Coroutine for example on the X only The small cube when rotating either in update or in the Coroutine should not be slant. but it's slant in the Coroutine. And how can I add a speed factor to the Update to control the rotation in the Update in case using the Update ? About controlling the speed in the Update I just added a global float variable and in the Update transform.Rotate(new Vector3(0, Time.deltaTime rotationSpeed, 0)) and it's working for the speed. |
0 | Player losing alignment with tilemap after moving I'm using an isometric tilemap(2 1) and I can't figure out how to make grid based movement on it's surface. I managed to get a code working for the grid based movement, moving my character with 0.5 along the Y axis and 0.86 ( sqrt(3) 2 ) along the X axis since I imagine it should work as if they are diamonds with the side of 1 unit, but it doesn't align with the center of the next tile.

0 | Gfx.WaitForPresent performance issue I am making a 2D mobile game and it runs really well (60 fps) on my phone. However, in some cases the performance goes down drastically to the point where it runs at 20 fps or even less. It happens at random times so I can't pinpoint what is causing this. During the performance decrease Gfx.WaitForPresent appears in my profiler which eats a lot of power. I am aware that this might be because of Vsync being turned on, but I have it disabled, along with shadows, AA and everything else that absolutely kills mobile performance. What else can be the problem? My game relies heavily on good performance for gameplay so this needs to be resolved ASAP. Edit I also noticed that the GPU stays at 0 ms which is really odd as well. |

0 | Clamping always returns 0 I have a class with three fields StartingAngleOnRotationPlane is 180 MinimumRotatedAngleX is 0 MaximumRotatedAngleX is 140 Here is the offending code public virtual float ClampRotatedDegreesWithinAllowedRange() float rotatedAngle this.transform.GetRotatedAngleOnXPlane() Debug.Log("Rotated " rotatedAngle) float clampedRotatedAngle Mathf.Clamp( AngleNormaliser.BetweenNegativeAndPositive180(this.StartingAngleOnRotationPlane rotatedAngle), this.MinimumRotatedAngleX, this.MaximumRotatedAngleX) return clampedRotatedAngle Here is the debug window As you can see, when the breakpoint was hit, rotatedAngle was 178.9446. To calculate clampedRotatedAngle, rotatedAngle is added to StartingAngleOnRotationPlane, supplied to a method called AngleNormaliser.BetweenNegativeAndPositive180(float input), and then clamped between MinimumRotatedAngleX (0) and MaximumRotatedAngleX (140). Here is the code for AngleNormaliser.BetweenNegativeAndPositive180(float input) public static float BetweenNegativeAndPositive180(float angleBetween0And360) while (angleBetween0And360 gt 180) angleBetween0And360 360 while (angleBetween0And360 lt 180) angleBetween0And360 360 return angleBetween0And360 Here is the debug window when AngleNormaliser.BetweenNegativeAndPositive180(float input) was invoked By the time the return statement was hit, the result 1.055389 should be returned and assigned to the variable clampedRotatedAngle, since 1.055389 is within the clamping range (0 140). However, that was not the case As you can see, clampedRotatedAngle was still zero. In fact, clampedRotatedAngle is always zero, regardless of what I feed into the Mathf.Clamp function How can I fix this? |

0 | How do I make an object's y axis align with a Vector3? I have a golf ball on the ground, and from a raycast, I have the normal which gives me the slope of the ground by the ball. I have an object which is rendered on the HUD to show that slope to the player. I have a parent object rotated 90 degrees around X, so that the indicator's Z axis points up. This way I can do this Quaternion yRot Quaternion.Euler(0, CameraController.Instance.CachedTransform.eulerAngles.y, 0) Vector3 displayGroundNormal yRot groundNormal lieIndicator3DParentCachedTransform.rotation Quaternion.LookRotation(displayGroundNormal) This, as far as I can tell, takes the ground normal, rotates it around the y axis so that it shows the proper perspective given the camera's facing. Then it tells that parent object to look in that direction, which aligns its z axis with the rotated ground normal. This works, except the object I have also rotates around the y axis depending on the orientation of the camera. I thought that I was throwing that information away in the second step by keeping only a Vector3 aligned with the ground normal rotated for the camera position. So I want this Not this |
0 | Rect transform stretch of a child object is set to 0 after instantiation I have the following hierarchy of my prefab PopupParent Popup ScreenDim They all have Rect Transform set to Stretch. Anchor mins are set to 0 and Anchor maxes to 1. Left, top, right and bottom are set to 0. When I pull this prefab to a Canvas manually, all works as expected. When I instantiate the prefab the problem I am encountering is, that the PopupParent is stretched as expected, to the full screen, but all its children are not. PopupParent looks like this Children Popup and ScreenDim look like this The instantiation I am doing using the Spawn Prefab Node in the Event editor provided by the ORK Framework. I am Mounting the PopupParent to my UICanvas. It could be, that the issue is caused by some Framework settings, but it might very well be related to how Unity works in general.

0 | Load scene without being in build settings and without using AssetBundle This is the closest I've gotten EditorSceneManager.OpenScene( AssetDatabase.GUIDToAssetPath( AssetDatabase.FindAssets( "t SceneAsset " MenuSceneName, new string "Assets" ) 0 ) ) However this generates an error at runtime InvalidOperationException This cannot be used during play mode, please use SceneManager.LoadScene() SceneManager.LoadSceneAsync() instead. I can't follow its suggestion because those functions require the scene to be in build settings or an asset bundle. So, is there any other option? I wonder how (and if) Addressables achieve this? Note I'm not willing to switch to Addressables I'm quite enjoying working with AssetBundles. Why? My game uses AssetBundles for general loading of EVERYTHING, so there's only one blank scene in build settings. However, during development I'd rather not have to continuously build and load from AssetBundles, so I'm trying to dynamically load scenes WITHOUT having to add them to build settings. |

0 | Unity Pixel Perfect Camera Adjusting the Viewport Rect? I am trying to make a pixel perfect Tetris style game. I have the pixel perfect component attached and have tried playing with settings such as Crop Frame and Stretch Fill. It seems to override any setting made to the 'Viewport Rect'. The problem here is I want to control where the play area is shown on the screen. For example I want the single player game to be somewhere near centre (although preferrably slightly off to the left). But when they play 2 Player mode I want the P1 playarea to be near left, and P2 area at the right. The screens below shows some of the settings I tried. The 3rd screen shot shows the play area approaching what I want, but I am unable to move it left to right for example (Im unable to move it at all). (Also note, if I try leaving CropFrame and StretchFill unchecked my Camera Size value is also overridden). I even tried to 'extend' the Pixel Perfect Camera class but haven't been able to do that, I'm starting to wonder if this is just a limitation of using this component and perhaps I would need to write my own implementation of the pixel perfect camera to achieve the full control I need. UPDATE Actually I am able to extend the Pixel Perfect Camera class by 'using UnityEngine.U2D'. So far this is what I am trying whilst I wait in hope of further help (It seems like a lost cause extending the class, because I am not sure I can override much from it and cannot see the code. I can't find a way to set the Viewport X or similar). All the best everyone! Thanks for any help. |
0 | How to create JSON file in notepad that will hold my positional vector3 data for one type of object I'm trying to get my head around using JSON files to store level data . Specifically in this example is to make my walls. (its a top down game like pacman). Each wall prefab is a 1x1x1 cube. I just want the JSON to hold the x,y,z. I have seen tutorials about how best to deserialise the data into Unity and I think im fine doing that, but I am unsure of how exactly to word the JSON file. I see the example on Unity docs says the format is like this "level" 1,"timeElapsed" 47.5,"playerName" "Dr Charles Francis" so, I could just do something like "index" 0,"x" 5,"y" 1,"z" 0 but I know that there needs to be a bit above, similar to XML and of this im clueless of what it needs to contain. I looked on Json.org but i didnt really understand it still. This is one example "glossary" "title" "example glossary", "GlossDiv" "title" "S", "GlossList" "GlossEntry" "ID" "SGML", "SortAs" "SGML", "GlossTerm" "Standard Generalized Markup Language", "Acronym" "SGML", "Abbrev" "ISO 8879 1986", "GlossDef" "para" "A meta markup language, used to create markup languages such as DocBook.", "GlossSeeAlso" "GML", "XML" , "GlossSee" "markup" But what is 'Glossary' and 'title' in the context of my game? All I currently have is a cube called Wall, with a script attached called Wall.cs that currently does nothing, but I will be making an array of Wall and plan on using the deserialised data from the json file to lay the Walls out using my GameController.cs Once I know what to put above and below to open and close the JSON file off, im pretty sure I can get it working how I need it to. I hope that made some sense. |

0 | Custom Inspector for textures? I am working with an open source project called Project Porcupine. The project is a game engine for a base building game that allows for one to extend the game. We have a system to read texture files, and use a .XML configuration file to parse the details of that file. This to me seems like a good use case for a custom inspector. Unfortunately, I can't figure out how to even configure the script to read in images as such, and google is letting me down. How can I write a custom editor for an image, even better if limited to a folder? Thanks! EDIT To clear things up a bit, I'm trying to make a custom inspector for images in the StreamingAssets folder. These assets are included with the build, and thus editable in Unity, but I would like to make a tool to make editing these a bit easier. Right now the inspector looks like this, the problem I'm having is getting anything to appear on the inspector at all. I've tried two things, first a Custom Inspector on TextureImporter, and using the following code, neither of which seemed to do anything. I would be happy to get anything printed in the Inspector, from that point I can figure out the rest, I hope. Thanks! using UnityEditor using UnityEngine public class SpriteXmlViewer AssetPostprocessor void OnPreprocessTexture() GUILayout.Label("Hello OnInspectorGUI!")

0 | How to tween to move an object in arc? Okay, so I think I need to use a tween in order to move an object in my game. I have some little green dudes that need to move in an arc (bezier) to a location that is clicked by the user. My game functions by having the mouse point raycast to the screen giving my character a position to move to. They don't just run though, they fire off their jetpacks and should travel in an arc to the target position. I'm pretty new to Unity but all I can come up with is using a tween to do this. Am I missing something? That being said, I'm totally confused on what a tween actually is. I can't wrap my head around how the object can be moved outside of an update function. I'm using the "free from the asset store" LeanTween package. I feel like there should be some sort of easier way to achieve the desired behavior. How can I have my character move from Vector3 A to Vector3 B in an arc? |

0 | Unity 2D Cinemachine weird behavior for non rectangular confiner I have been trying to emulate a sort of Megaman X4 way of following the player around platforming levels, where the camera is confined to certain boundaries of such levels. However, all the tutorials and guides out there only show rectangular or square shaped confiners for the virtual cameras, and not odd shapes like an L shaped confiner, when using a weirdly shaped confiner the camera just tends to snap from one position to another and the game ends up feeling bad when that happens. I have tried solving this problem by using dolly tracks, which work nicely... But I end up having tons of virtual cameras to change to on sections that are weirdly shaped since the camera ends up also suddenly snapping on to weird positions on sharp turns and it also tends to get way off track, even when the settings of the virtual camera are configured to have very little damping and if there's no damping the camera just stutters all the time. Is there a way to have this kind of behavior to confine a virtual camera to oddly shaped level boundaries? |

0 | VBO interleaving dillema I'm trying to write a map editor for a unity game using openGL. In order to do that, I need to unpack it's resource files to get meshes, textures and other good stuff. In doing so, I've discovered that unity mesh asset stores vertices, normals, texture data, and any other per vertex type data in one interleaved array. I have two choices here. First is to leave the data as is and push it into a single VBO and then use attrib pointer to adjust strides and whatnots to make it work. When I read data from file into memory, I can just read whole array with a single ifstream read method call. Second choice is to unravel all data into it's separate channels and have a separate VBO for each data type. I personally prefer it this way, but this means that I need to deinterleave that array. I'm unsure how to do this efficiently. The most obvious way (and very inefficient) is to read it char by char and store each char in appropriate array, depending on channel structure. I could maybe mess with it a bit and set it up to read it channel per channel (meaning 2 4 chars at once) instead of char by char. This still seems very slow to me. Maybe I could load the whole array into memory and then deinterleave it there, but I'm still unsure of method that would be fast. The priority is for the program to be fast while drawing, and deinterleaved multiple VBO setup is said to be faster due to lesser amount of cache misses. To give you a sense of numbers, the game I'm looking at contains about 2630 different mesh assets, with each containing an estimated average of 500 vertices. How do I deal with this? I will be loading all this data just once on program startup anyway, so it doesn't have to be super fast, but I don't want to force the user to wait for too long even then. Maybe number of vertices altogether is small enough for it to be very fast regardless, but I don't want to commit to either way before I have some idea of what I'm doing. Bottom line is, should I just leave it interleaved, or is there some efficient way to deinterleave it? Am I jumping the train here, being scared of leaving it interlaved? I know I should probably benchmark both cases, but both cases are drastically different in my case and would require huge code changes, not to mention I'm nowhere close to actually drawing the scene I need to. |
0 | Some autocompletion doesn't work in Visual Studio Code with Unity I am using Unity 2018 with Visual Studio Code version 1.43.2 on a Mac. Things seemed to work fine between Unity and Visual Studio Code, but now I realize that something is wrong with Code. I have been following along with a tutorial and the autocompletion functionality of Code seemed fine until the function OnTriggerEnter, which was shown as autocompleting for the guy in the video (who was using the other Visual Studio), didn't fill in. However, many other Unity things do automatically show up as options. I looked at this Microsoft help page about VS Code and Unity, and I have everything it I seems I would possibly need to combine the two I have .NET, Mono, Debugger for Unity, the C extension, and got Unity Tools for good measure. Generic C things like return, void, int, etc. autocomplete, so the C extension seems fine. Many Unity things, like Vector3, GameObject, Destroy, transform, etc. also autocomplete like they should. What is wrong here? How can I fix this and get full autocomplete? |

The bodies should work with Unity s physics engine i.e. the bodies should react to the forces and gravity applied. I am flexible in implementing soft bodies in 2D or 3D. I would appreciate any suggestions and thoughts on this topic. |
0 | How to add a volume bar like YouTube for iOS? I am almost done with my game in Unity 5. However when the player presses Volume Up Down, the iOS (version) shows the standard UI to show volume. Android has it's own (looks better on Stock). I want to make my game consistent on either platform and different variations of Android. So I want to recreate how YouTube (for iOS) handles the change in volume. I can't figure this out. Any help would be awesome!!! |

0 | Unity run time creating material has performance impact? Just found creating a material in a script for the first time would have performance impact. (Using Unity 5.6.5f) A very simple script for testing is to create a game object with MeshRenderer in Start(), assign a new material each time in Update(), gameObj.GetComponent lt MeshRenderer gt ().material new Material(Shader.Find("Standard")) From Unity Profiler the first function call took much longer than following calls, the first one took 100ms and others less then 1ms. Can someone give it an explanation? Thanks. |
0 | Player disappears when it collides with a tagged object I am working on a simple game where the goal is to help a Player catch specific objects with a tag "Present". After taking care of the models, animations I am now working on the collisions and counting UI. For the collisions, on my Player Controller (I am using the ThridPersonUserController from the player Unity Standard Assets which simplified the whole animation process), I added the following functions void OnCollisionEnter(Collision other) if (other.gameObject.tag "Present") Destroy(gameObject) count count 1 SetCountText() void SetCountText() countText.text "Count " count.ToString() if (count 0) winText.text "Thanks to you the Christmas will be memorable!" However, like this, when the Player hits an object with the tag "Present", even though the counting is working properly, the player disappears. I have tried to change the OnCollisionEnter to an OnTriggerEnter, like this void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other) if (other.gameObject.CompareTag("Present")) Destroy(gameObject) count count 1 SetCountText() However when the Player hits the objects with the tag "Present", they don't disappear. My Player has a Capsule Collider and a Rigidbody. The objects with the tag "Present" have a Box Collider and a Rigidbody. Any guidance on how to make my Player stay in scene while removing the other objetcs and reducing the count is appreciated. |
0 | Unity How to make script work with duplicated objects? I have an object in my game that, when clicked, causes the player to move toward it. It does this by sending its position to the player's SetTarget function. The player's Move function then heads toward the position. This is working, but when I duplicate the object and click on it, the player still moves toward the original object's position. When I print debugging statements to the console, it appears that both positions are being calculated, but the original position is the last one and wins out. (I'm using the object's this.transform.position to send the position to the player's SetTarget function.) Can I not duplicate objects like this and expect the script to work? Do I need to use a prefab? If so, how? I know how to create prefabs but am not sure what I would need to change with the script or other settings when they are created. Thanks. Here's the code public class PotController MonoBehaviour private GameObject chefObject void Start () chefObject GameObject.Find ("Chef") void Update() if(Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0)) print ("pot clicked!")

0 | Unity sprites rendering problems on Android I'm creating a simple 2d game for android, with normal sprites and animations. The problem is that when I open the game on my smartphone (Samsung galaxy trend plus), The sprites are rendered this way Of course, this is not what should happen. Moreover, within the Unity editor everything works flawlessly. My settings for the export are Texture compressions ETC2 (GLES 3.0) Tested also with "Don't override" Player settings Default orientation landscape Use 32 bit display buffer unchecked tried also with this option checked Rendering path forward tried also with Legacy Deferred Static batching Dynamic batching both checked Camera settings Clear flags Solid color tried also skybox I don't have any other scene, and this one has only one camera (I saw some topics where people were having problems because they had two or more cameras). The sprites are all .png images with transparence, except for the background, that has no transparence, but is lagging. There are three sprites which are animated using the spritesheet, but they're terribly lagging, and almost can't be seen in this screenshot. I really can't understand why, I'll continue to try, waiting for your answers. Thank you in advance! EDIT If in the player settings the orientation is set to auto rotate and the device is in portrait, all the sprites works perfectly!!! The problem is that my game is meant for landscape... |

0 | Unity3D Raycasting in Start behaves uncorrectly, but works correctly in Update? I have this method, which just raycasts at a position downwards, and checks what tile is there, if there is one public static Tile RaycastTile(Vector3 position) Debug.Log("raycastTile at pos " position) var layerMask 1 lt lt LayerMask.NameToLayer("Floor") RaycastHit hit Debug.DrawRay(position, new Vector3(0, 10, 0), Color.red, 50) if (Physics.Raycast(position, new Vector3(0, 1, 0), out hit, 10, layerMask)) var tile hit.collider.gameObject.transform Debug.LogWarning(tile.name " " tile.parent.name " at pos " tile.position) var coordinates new Vector2Int(Mathf.RoundToInt(tile.position.x) 2, Mathf.RoundToInt(tile.position.z) 2) return map.GetTile(coordinates) else Debug.LogError("Tile not found under position " position) Debug.Break() return null Currently it is called for the player at Start() ("starting at lt player's absolute position ") and at Update() ("update at pos lt player's absolute position ") And the map is being generated (tiles created, destroyed, etc) in Awake(). and for some reason this is the output And the map generation works like this Creates a room at (0, 0) with tiles and all, then it searches for a connection point on the existing map, whom the new room could be connected to. (with some rotation, if it's needed) (Every tile is 2x2 meters, and they are on a strict grid) So for some reason calling this method at Start() (with the same position) hits a totally different tile. While in Update() it works correctly. At first I thought that it's because of Destroy(), because the objects are only destroyed at the end of the frame. But I tried DestroyImmediate() and it didn't help. (And after thinking, I realised that destroying objects at the end of the frame wouldn't cause issues. Or is it?) Then I had the idea, that maybe Start doesn't wait for Awake because it compute heavy. And the raycast in the Start hits a (yet) non translated newly generated room. So I edited the code so every room is initially created at very far away, which is relatively "infinite far away" from the player at (9999, 9999). But the issue remained. EDIT With (9999, 9999) Sometimes (maybe half of the time?) now it is correctly raycasted even at start, while before it was never correct in start. EDIT2 With (0, 0) it hits correctly at start as well, but very very rarely. Do you have any idea what could cause this issue? Sorry if there isn't enough info, feel free to ask. ) |

0 | Quaternion.Lerp does not actually rotate object when called inside an "if" clause Let's say I have a RotatableObject class, which inherits from MonoBehaviour. Here is its Start() method private void Start() this.startingLocalRotation this.transform.localRotation this.finalLocalRotation Quaternion.Euler(this.startingLocalRotation.eulerAngles.x, 150f, this.startingLocalRotation.eulerAngles.z) Initialize other private fields It has a method called Rotate(), defined as follows private void Rotate() this.transform.localRotation Quaternion.Lerp(this.startingLocalRotation, this.finalLocalRotation, 0.2f) Given the following Update() method, the object rotates as expected private void Update() this.Rotate() However, if I make the following changes to Update(), then the object does not actually rotate, even though the Rotate() method is hit private void Update() if (this.SomeCondition) this.Rotate() this.SomeCondition always has the value true over multiple frames. What is my mistake, and how can I fix it? EDIT In response to this comment When you say "the object rotates as expected" do you mean that the object rotates from starting angles until final angles and then stops rotating (without the if) ? Yes. could you provide some more details about what SomeCondition is? this.SomeCondition is determined by the state of another object, say, Puppy. E.g. if puppyInstance.Mood Mood.Happy, then this.SomeCondition is true. Did you try replacing the condition with the word true No, I have not tried that. However, when stepping through the call stack in debug mode, I can see that this.SomeCondition is true and Rotate() is called I managed to step into the Rotate() method itself. EDIT I tried the first approach described in this answer. However, it did not produce the effects that I was aiming for. I set a breakpoint here transform.localRotation Quaternion.Lerp( startingLocalRotation, finalLocalRotation, rotationProgress ) Every single time the breakpoint was hit in the Update() call, I could see that the value of rotationProgress was steadily increasing. However, the value of transform.localRotation never actually changed it was always ( 0.7, 0.7, 0.0, 0.0). If I updated transform.localRotation outside of an if clause, however, that game object rotates as expected transform.localRotation gets updated as rotationProgress gets updated. EDIT Never mind, I am an idiot. The problem lies elsewhere in the code. The suggested approach works and I have accepted it as the answer. |

0 | Reasons to not use Root Motion Engine Unity 3D tool Blender Since the start of my game dev endeavour, I can't seem to decide on the type of animation system I want to use. Can someone please give me reasons why you would NOT use root motion and maybe a real world example, because currently I see no reason to not use root motion. I understand the loss of control when using root motion, but from my understanding, the amount of control is "enough". Treadmill motion(stationary animations) seems like it wont look good enough because you have to perfectly match your move speed to animations. I just need either a resource or proper answer on the specifics about why you would use one over the other or a blend(treadmill for walking, root for jumping etc). Appreciate any help provided. |

I made a set of 10 different "ocean" tiles, all interchangeable with one another, and I'd like to randomly attach these 10 different tiles together in different combinations over a large rectangular area what would be the best way to do so?

0 | In Unity, how to hide objects from specific cameras without using Layers The situation is that there are multiple players that can collect items. When a player collects an item, the item will disappear from that player's screen but still be visible to other players. I know I can use LayerMask to achieve this effect. However, what if there are more than 32 players? (Unity Layer has 32 bits). How can I still hold this effect? I tried using OnWillRender() to check which camera is rendering the object in order to disable its renderer. This does not work because once the renderer has been disabled, OnWillRender() will not be called again for other cameras. |

0 | Unity Seamless Terrain I am programmatically generating terrain using unity's terrain object and assigning height maps to it via the terrainData, the problem is that there are seams even when using the GroupingId(which is used for auto connect). I even tried creating a terrain object in the editor with neighbours, and modified their terrain data via script, seams still there. I have also tried SetConnectivityDirty after applying terrainData. Most people who have reported this seemed(lol) to have issues with their normals at the edges, I cant see that being the issue here, but if it is, how do i approach solving it given I am using unity terrains. If there is no good answer I will have to resort to custom meshes and lose all the nice terrain tool functionality.

I've made a multiplayer game with Unity and Mirror networking, and it all works perfectly when just running it on my own computer. However, I am trying to host on a dedicated server so that I can put the project on my portfolio and not have to worry about whether players can log in and test play the game or not. I tried a AWS Free server and I see that the Tanks example from Mirror is working just fine (although laggy), but my own project doesn't. I think this has something to do with the RAM limit of the free server but I'm not sure. I can see the task manager going up to 95 memory usage. When I remove some particle effects and geometry and enemies, it works. I'm not sure if this is my code that is so cloggy or the server or both. In any case I would need a solution for this but I don't know what my options are. Would be great if anyone can point me in the right direction. Thanks! |

0 | Unity 5 Manually zooming scaling in and out of an image with a text layer while still retaining text sharpness when zoomed? I have a section in my scene where I have an image on a layer, as a child of this layer I have a load of text objects. I need the ability to zoom in and out of the image (it's a technical drawing, so necessary to zoom in and out), so I have set up a simple Scale of the image itself (via Playmaker) and applied the zoom in to a button and the zoom out to another button. When zoomed out, the image Scale is set to the default 1 and when zoomed in it goes to Scale 3. It works perfectly. I have also added a 'Scroll Rect' to the parent canvas, this enables me to click and scroll around the image when it is zoomed in this also works perfectly. However the main problem I have is that while the image looks fine zoomed in (the original image is a large size, so looks fine even when scaled up to Scale 3) the text does not look good when scaled. It is essentially just 'zooming' in on the text and therefore the bigger it gets, the worse it looks. Text is set to 'Best Fit' it has to be this way due to the fact I have dynamic translations on the text, so the text needs to stay within its specified area and shrink if necessary. Ideally I would like the text size to scale in line with the image scale ie. if the text is size 10 when zoomed out, then it should be size 30 when zoomed x3 (as opposed to a scaled size 10) is this possible? The text must stay in the exact same position relative to the image, as text is placed at specific points on the drawing. The text also needs to be able to be scrolled in exact line with the image (hence why I have it as a child of it, so it follows nicely). Canvas is set to 'Screen Space Overlay' with 'Scale with Screen Size' and 'height' at 1 (works perfectly across the game like this). Screenshots attached... Canvas Text Any help would be appreciated.

Clicking on the title bar of the Blackboard and attempting to drag it, though, causes it to immediately disappear. Checking in the UIElements Debugger shows that this is because it's somehow gotten its World Bound Y set to 79, so it's disappeared off the top of the window. A bit of checking in the reference source suggests that if the Blackboard was not Movable, it couldn't be dragged around. Not ideal, but a temporary workaround at least. But if you uncomment the code that sets this up, (commented out block 1,) it breaks the editor entirely clicking on the Blackboard causes Unity to stop responding to mouse clicks. Attempting to minimize the damage with the other two commented out blocks has no effect. Anyone have any idea what's going wrong here and how to fix it?

0 | Unexpected results during collisions in Unity I've got a basic car based game I'm starting in Unity. Currently the scene has only a floor, a car (player controlled), and one building. Bumping into the building at low to medium speeds works as expected. When getting the car up to max speed and smashing into the building, though, weird results happen. Originally, the car was being pushed through the floor and falling off the map. I changed the floor from a plane to a cube that was stretched to be broad and flat (scale 2 height), and that helped. Now the car seems to clip right through the building at top speed, sometimes flipping itself into the air when it emerges. So what gives? The car and building are both imported .fbx models and both have box colliders stretched to the outer bounds of the models. The car has a rigid body with gravity. The building used to have a rigid body, but I removed it once I realized it was making the building fly into the air on impact (which was definitely not what I wanted). Here are the relevant parts of the movement code bool key up false float top speed 1f float current speed 0f float acceleration .01f void Update () if (Input.GetKeyDown (KeyCode.UpArrow) amp amp !key up) key up true if (Input.GetKeyUp (KeyCode.UpArrow) amp amp key up) key up false if (key up) if (current speed lt top speed) current speed acceleration else if (current speed gt .1f amp amp current speed lt .1f) current speed 0f if (current speed ! 0f) current speed current speed 0.9f transform.Translate (0f, 0f, current speed) Update After switching the camera to a fixed position (rather than following the car), I've gotten better observations. The car will clip right through at any speed if I keep pushing forward. There's initial resistance from the collision detection and some stuttering from the car, but it always breaks through and then flips into the air on its way out. I've added the following function to the car code void OnCollisionEnter (Collision collision info) current speed 0f current speed is what's being used to translate the car forward each frame. This has slowed the bug down, but the car always eventually pushes through if I hold down the gas long enough. It looks as if Unity's collision detection isn't moving the car back far enough on each frame that the car is colliding. Must I handle that portion on my own? |

0 | Unity Blender models animations showing gaps As part of a college project, a member of my group has made some simple chests with an open animation. Importing these into Unity though, I instantly noticed there were gaps where the faces should be. After a bit of experimenting, I figured it was because the Normals were facing the wrong way. The outside seemed fixed, but faces were missing when the chest opens during its animation. I'm guessing the inside of the chest will need another layer of faces with the Normals facing the right way...? Though surely this would means having doubles...? |

0 | Unity Open offline web pages in a browser window by clicking a button? I currently have a Unity game where the user can click on buttons to open up web pages, I use the following script on the button for this... public void OpenURL(string url) Application.OpenURL(url) The URL is then put into the box that this script produces in the inspector and works perfectly. However what I would now like to do is open the pages OFFLINE instead, so people without an internet connection can see the information. The way I envisage doing this is to save the web pages so they can be opened up locally in a browser offline. However I am stumped as to how to tell the button to open the relevant file and open it is there a way of doing this? Maybe save the web page file in a local folder and point the button to that file? This would be way easier that the only alternative I can think of to save each web page as an image and have them open up as an image popup within the game as opposed to in the browser (there are a lot, so I would rather not have to do this!) This is for PC Standalone only. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! |

0 | How to increase the difficulty setting as close as possible to maximum difficulty automatically? I have a simple 2D version of Mini golf. The goal is to manage to clear each level in the least amount of shots, the ball is bouncing at most 3 times (stops on the 4th hit) from a wall but not reducing in speed, there is no out of bounds and no obstacles that would remove the ball. Now I would like to add some water instant death obstacle at the most annoying places. How do I find those places? The player can aim in a 360 radius, if I set the goal of managing a given level in 2 shots, there are 129,600 ways of how the player could shoot the ball. While it should be possible to simulate all of those shots fairly easy, I don't want to add randomly water and check if the level is still possible to clear, rather simulate the level, record all places the ball went over and place on the spots with the most hits water. What is the best strategy a good algorithm to blockade the most ways but to guaranty that at least one way stays clear? Does the strategy change significantly if moving obstacles (on a fixed path, same rule for bouncing as normal wall) are included? |
0 | Creating a delay by using Invoke Is it possible to delay the effects of a script that is attached to a game object? I have 2 characters in a scene, both receiving live motion capture data, so they are both animated identically. I have rotated one by 180 degrees and placed it in front of the other one, to create the impression that they are copying mirroring each other. Each has several scripts attached to them, of course... Now, I would like to be able to delay one character a bit (e.g. 1 sec) to make it look more realistic, as if one character is observing the other character and then copying its exact movements. Is it possible to do this by somehow using the Invoke method on the other character's Update perhaps? Or any other possibilities to achieve what I described? EDIT I used a buffering mechanism, as suggested by all the helpful comments and answers, instead of delaying, because delaying would have resulted in the same network data being used, except after a delay, but I needed the same old data being used to animate a second character to create the impression of a delayed copying... private Queue lt Vector3 gt posQueue private Queue lt Quaternion gt rotQueue int delayedFrames 30 void Start() posQueue new Queue lt Vector3 gt () rotQueue new Queue lt Quaternion gt () void Update() Vector3 latestPositions Quaternion latestOrientations if (mvnActors.getLatestPose(actorID 1, out latestPositions, out latestOrientations)) posQueue.Enqueue(latestPositions) rotQueue.Enqueue(latestOrientations) if ((posQueue.Count gt delayedFrames) amp amp (rotQueue.Count gt delayedFrames)) Vector3 delayedPos posQueue.Dequeue() Quaternion delayedRot rotQueue.Dequeue() updateMvnActor(currentPose, delayedPos, delayedRot) updateModel(currentPose, targetModel) |
0 | Why does Unity require an EventSystem component for input during a play test, where input works fine without it in a build? Please be aware that this was initially a question about how to get the input to work. A comment pointed me in the direction of a fix, but only left me with more questions in regards to understanding the problem I was originally having, so I have edited my question to include the initial solution and focus on the question I still have. The Problem Recently, I have moved from using GUIText and GUITexture objects to using the Canvas to display UI elements. In effort to set up a prototype, some external GUI elements were imported, and when the game is built and run from my phone, everything works as intended. However, if I simply run the game from inside Unity, input is completely ignored. I originally thought this may have been a response to grabbing touch screen input, and expecting it to work on a regular screen with mouse input, but I have since confirmed that it still does not work when using Unity Remote to test the game on my phone. It has since been pointed out that I was not using an EventSystem, along side my Event Trigger objects. After implementing an EventSystem component, and the default input module supplied by the EventSystem interface, the input works. However, this still leaves me confused. What is the point of enforcing the implementation of the EventSystem, if it only ensures functionality during play test? Why would I want this system in my end build, when I can confirm that the build version functions properly, without it? Below you will find my setup, contextual to the problem. Click for a zoomed in view, as I have included the component structure of my UICanvas and MainCamera objects, in case it is helpful. In this case, we have a button that increases the max speed, when pressed. Everything works in a build, but nothing works during a play test. Additional Information I have enabled 'show touch input' on my phone, to confirm that the phone is still registering touch input. I moved to using the Canvas object after the 'depreciated warning' for using GUIText and GUITexture turned into a 'depreciated error'. Even if there is a suitable way to still perform these actions with the GUIText and GUITexture objects, I still wish to persist with using the Canvas. I am also personally curious as to why this issue exists within the Canvas, as it seems lead to obvious cases of severe inefficiency, in a system that seems to have been put together with the sole point of being more efficient. I can create manual OnMouseDown buttons that will work during play test, however, some GUI elements are more complex and persisting with this sort of solution seems like an incredible waste of time. As previously mentioned, I do not have any input issues if I simply build and run the game from my phone. However, this takes considerably more time than a simply debug test, and even without the high efficiency cost, I do not have access inspector manipulation during my play test. I am using Unity version 5.3.5 personal. Any solution that does not include updating Unity will be well preferred. While I have no physical problems updating Unity, in some previous projects updating Unity versions has lead to massive issues that we would prefer to outright avoid, if possible. TL DR Unity will not accept input on my input canvas during debug. I literally have to build and run my project each time I want to test input, or create dodgy hacks to provide input from the Inspector. The addition of an EventSystem allows input during debug play testing, but is not needed for input post build. Why does Unity act this way, and why do I need an EventSystem entirely for play test input? |
0 | How can I write an additive mesh shader that splits the RGB channels while accounting for depth? I'm trying to create a sort of "hologram" effect. So far, what I have is an additive, three pass shader that uses ColorMask for each pass to separate the RGB channels. The problem is that doing so requires ZWrite to be off (first image) so that each pass doesn't intersect the others (second image). However, doing so means that the model geometry overlaps itself, which I don't want. I've tried the various methods of taking depth into consideration with transparency (This, for example) but they all cause problems when trying to separate the RGB channels. Is there some way to have each pass take depth into consideration within itself, but not with the other passes? |
