Great video. I'm following you now. You do an amazing job. The code download link is dead though. Also, your picture during the coding obscures some of the code you write. This is really a problem when you're typing literal strings (as in the case of the action maps). Thanks!

[@tczhou9969]

For anyone who wants to make the function working on the right hand instead., here are the steps: 1. In the script, change the "XRI LeftHand" to "XRI RightHand" 2. [Important] Make sure the XRI RightHand's "Move" action is not empty, if there is no action relates to it, click on the + button and choose "Add binding". In the path, choose "Primay2DAxis [RightHand Controller]". (By default, there is no move action in the Right Hand controller, if you don't add the Move action, the `_thumbstick.trigger` is always falsy, and as a result, the teleport beam will stay active and cannot be cancelled by releasing thumbstick.) 3. Drag the right hand raycaster to the script

Hey, your channel just got recommended for me and I have to say that I'm only 10 minutes in and I'm really impressed! I can see you put a lot of work and effort into these videos and I know that if you'll keep uploading that often your channel will be very known. I like the camera and the lights behind it and it's really given me a studio and professional feeling. Right now I don't have a VR headset but I'm planning on buying one soon. Keep up the great work man, I appreciate your effort, Matan.

Hello Justin! Your video is amazing and easy to understand! Here are my tips: First,the XR interaction tookit has updated and the action map has changed; The input actions like “Teleport Mode Activate” and "Teleport Mode Cancel" have been moved to the XRI LeftHand Locomotion. Secondly, I found the teleportion does not go as well as I expected : When I release the thumbstick , I found myself teleported to somewhere else instead of the XR ray hit point. Finally ,I found that the rayInteractor.enabled and _isActive should be set false after the method QueueTeleportRequest being excuted.If you don't do that, the teleportation method may be excuted many times during the time the thumstick returning back to the origin. Thanks a lot!

[@lacoors]

Just a question if i try to teleport outside of the plane i get a red ray and the code prevent me to do it just like u show it in the video. But if we add a cube or bowling alley ;) over the plane and don't add a teleportation area to it. Even if i get a red ray when i pass over it when i realease the thumbstick it will teleport me on that area anyway any clue why ???

[@JustinPBarnett]

Oh I think I forgot to add a check on the hit.gameobject for a teleportation area! You’ll need to add that and determine if you can teleport on not using that. Good catch!

[@lacoors]

@@JustinPBarnett Thanks for the advice i have modify the test in the update for : if (!_rayInteractor.GetCurrentRaycastHit(out RaycastHit hit) || hit.transform.GetComponent() == null) { _rayInteractor.enabled = false; _isActive = false; return; } and now it work. I can't teleport on a non teleportable area. Non sure it's the best way to do it but it worked :)

[@JustinPBarnett]

@@lacoors Yup! good catch & solution

[@mrstruijk]

Hi Justin! Thanks for the tutorial, that really helped me along. One thing that didn't work out for me was that my teleportation happened pretty much instantaneously. The 'thumbStick.triggered == true' did not behave as expected. To fix this, I first created a new action for the Primary2DAxis, which I set to 'Value' and 'Vector2' as the Control Type. I then referenced that action instead of the Move action in the code, and used 'if (thumbStick.ReadValue() != Vector2.zero) { return; }'. This worked for me, I hope someone else finds it useful too.

[@JustinPBarnett]

Glad you got it working!

[@jacobclaytor5999]

Thank you very much for this. I could not figure it out the for the life of me. Another thing I did was got rid of the isActive boolean. Since we are already toggling rayInteractor enabled/disabled, just check that boolean to simplify the code a bit.

[@parse_error]

Thanks! I spent 1h trying to find why my thumbstick wasn't staying on triggered state (had the problem only in build, not in editor) and your solution worked for me ;)

[@winn8888]

Same thing here - thank you for this excellent solution. I didn't even need to set up a new input action, I just left the reference to the existing Move action and used your code in the update loop and it sorted the issue for me.

[@greg2fs]

I don't see the problem about setting the rotation about the thumbstick position, just save the thumbstick vector2 when it' is greater that 0.9f for example, and calculate the rotation with that

[@Atlar]

I really liked the tutorial it was easy to follow and easy to implement. Not sure if anyone proposed a solution but I did manage to get the facing issue resolved. Not sure if it's the best solution but it does work. I created a standalone GameObject to use as a recticle. I gave the object an obvious "front", enable, and place it at the hit point whenever the rayInteractor "isActive". There's a little math to convert the 2d axis into a rotation angle Vector2 directionVec = thumbStickAction.ReadValue(); float angle = Mathf.Atan2(directionVec.y, directionVec.x) * Mathf.Rad2Deg; landingReticle.transform.rotation = Quaternion.Euler(new Vector3(0, -angle, 0)); // This is assuming you're rotating around the Y axis. Some minor adjustments to align the objects "forward" with the angle you have to add 2 lines to the teleportRequest code. teleportRequest.matchOrientation = MatchOrientation.TargetUpAndForward; //

[@JustinPBarnett]

Thanks! And good way to fix that

[@olivername]

I have done this but the line is not always on the hands in middle of the plate

[@curtisturpin9389]

Here's the solution I found for the Rotation problem you ran into: I use a game object as the "Reticle" for the XR Ray Interactor > XR Interactor Line Visuals. I then use the joystick input, find the direction based on the Vector2 and the Transform of the controller being used > ```Vector3 joystickDirection = controllerTransform.right * joystickRotationValue.x + controllerTransform.forward * joystickRotationValue.y;``` after this, you want to 0 out the Y coordinate of of joystickDirection.y to keep the reticle flat against the ground. ```joystickDirection.y = 0``` I also normalized the joystickDirection, but I don't think it's necessary I then use that to rotate the Reticle > ```Quaternion newRotation = Quaternion.LookRotation(forwardDirection, Vector3.up); reticleTransform.rotation = Quaternion.RotateTowards(reticleTransform.rotation, newRotation, 10000 * Time.deltaTime);``` Then in the Teleport Request > ```destinationRotation = new Quaternion(0, Mathf.Round(reticleTransform.rotation.y), 0, 0), matchOrientation = MatchOrientation.TargetUpAndForward``` Essentially, serializing the rotation of the joystick inside the Tranform of the reticle and applying that during the teleport request. I'm currently running this under the Update method, but only if my teleporter is currently active. I'm looking to find a way to get this out of Update() so it's not checking for an if statement every frame.

[@olivername]

hi I got issue where the rays don't work and the move on controllers could you please help thanks

[@sebastien4507]

In my case i kept teleporting, so I managed to fix it when you disable the rayInteractor and isActive variable at the end of your update

[@chills_20]

can you teleport without the VR Headset and just mouse-click around? Also, how can I save this as a phone or website for people to access?

The ray casted from the hand is rotated 90 degrees on the Z axis. Any idea of how to correct this?

[@JustinPBarnett]

Try creating an empty game object as a child of each controller and rotate that to where you like it. Then you can move the ray interactor and line renderer component to the child object and that should work.

[@DanielSantallaa]

@@JustinPBarnett thanks!

[@danread1217]

Nice tutorial, and demonstrates the logic by linking input to action. Quick question- why wouldn't you use a Player Input component to isolate the control action and use it to broadcast to your methods in the Teleportation Manager? That removes the need to hard-code a controller input and gives more flexibility further down the line (which is what the new Input System aims to do).

[@JustinPBarnett]

That's actually a really great suggestion! Should work pretty good

Hi Justin, how would you create teleportation area on complicated meshes, such as it is in walkabout mini golf or Star Wars Tales from the Galaxy Edge?

[@JustinPBarnett]

Just add a teleportation area to the mesh!

[@xZeroCCx]

Random guess, but to get the rotation for the teleport couldn't you disable the snap turning while the teleport is active, and use the right hand to handle your teleport rotation?

[@JustinPBarnett]

That's a possibility, but I'd love to be able to use the same stick I'm using to teleport to also set the rotation.

[@xZeroCCx]

@@JustinPBarnett Hmmm, Does your thumbstick have a "Middle click" so instead of teleporting on releasing the stick you could teleport on clicking it, and track the rotation before clicking. Or like enter tp mode by moving the stick, use the stick to rotate and then pull the trigger to finalize the tp.

[@xZeroCCx]

Firing the TP on stick release works, but unless you find an invalid target there isn't a way to cancel our teleport right?

[@Ariel16283]

@@xZeroCCx There is a game called Fuji on the quest, they set up the controls so you can teleport with both sticks, but if you are teleporting with one and try to start to teleport with the other it just cancels the current teleport.

[@Ariel16283]

I actually think it is more natural to have the teleport on release of the sticks. Pretty much the majority of the VR games have it implemented like this, so thats what people will expect.

[@ScratchedWinter]

[@rodrigo.cs.machado]

hello, I have a small problem involving teleportation. I'm instantiating the player in the scene because the phase is a multiplayer one, however the "teleportation area" script that is on the ground for the use of the teleport only recognizes the "teleportation provider" script of the player if he is already in the scene when the player comes. how to solve it? I already tried dragging and dropping the script directly from the prefab to be instantiated but it didn't work...

[@timpixel3679]

You could set the references inside the start method of the Teleportation Manager that was created here. This is just an example for one teleport object, if you have multiple areas or anchors you need to do some kind of loop. void Start() { var teleportArea = FindObjectOfType(); teleportArea.teleportationProvider = GetComponent(); // here comes the other code from this tutorial }

You'll need to go into the Input Actions and find the HTC Vive Wand controller option and pick the specific input you want to use from that. So around 8:30 instead of using those action maps you can create your own specific one to use and map to.

I inadvertently updated the XR Interaction Toolkit to the latest version (2.0.1). Typical newbie mistake. Ignored the warning that it was going to break the project. I could have used Collab to go back to the original version, but thought it might be interesting to fix the breaks that happened. The XRI Default Input Actions are very different. It broke the navigation on the left hand totally, although the right turn was still working nicely. Still testing a few more changes. I'll try to post them here and on the Discord.

Hello Justin! I am currenty using your tutorials for my bachelor's degree and I have a problem with this part. I followed your tutorial to animate hands beforehand and after doing this tutorial my rays do not cast anymore and I cannot teleport. Is there any solution for this, or did I mess up something? I am also seeing that my Line Renderer associated to my controller automatically disables itself when I enter play mode. Thanks in advance!

In regards to directional teleporting, you might find an answer by seeing how Oculus implemented it in their Unity integration. This tutorial implements what you're describing: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qGLOd2OGndyEbqc

Ooo thanks! Definitely going to look into this

I should mention that while mathematically the magnitude of the thumbstick pressing against the socket is equal to 1, in practice the number might be smaller (0.99 for example). The same goes for the center being point (0,0). You may want to use inequalities in the if statements to allow for a deadzone and a tolerance for the thumbstick.

That video uses the older OVR system. And, it's from 2019. I'm not sure it will be supported in the future.

That’s not new one there a new one with 5 on there now

[@JustinPBarnett]

Oh I highly recommend the new version now instead of this video. This one is outdated

2018-we teleported with basic animation, beautiful spline and round point model for it... 2021... wtf man?))

Not for beginners. This tutorial goes way too fast and is not very clear.

Did you watch this video first?? kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z4emZI2FrdNlgtE

Amazing video, I had the same problem as some people that the trigger wasnt working correctly, changed to: if (_thumbstick.ReadValue() != Vector2.zero) return; And it worked just fine. Another problem was the teleport was going too far away but I figured that the teleportation was being activated more than once so after I do the TeleportRequest I just added this two lines: provider.QueueTeleportRequest(request); rayInteractor.enabled = false; _isActive = false; Hope this helps someone :)
