Thank you so much for this! Good timing :D 🎉 excellent and thorough. You explain everything and make it easy to follow

[@SpeedTutor]

I appreciate that, my friend! :) What are you working on?

[@strider5402]

Man it's been ages since I watched a video of yours. I used to be on unity daily many years ago, I still remember watching your survival island video, I used it to make a similar fps zombie game me and a few friends used to play. A real throw back watching this, I would love to get back into Unity some time.

[@SpeedTutor]

Haha, nice to have you back then and I do hope you get back into Unity. What stopped you using it? Just life getting in the way?

[@strider5402]

@@SpeedTutor thanks :D, yeah life just happened 😄 nothing bad in particular. But lately I have been trying to spend my free time, learning and creating rather than consuming too much. I see quite a lot has changed since I last used it so I'll definitely have to relearn a few things, but I'm excited to start tinkering around again.

A few days ago i implemented a very similar stuff for my game It was very fun to do it. Some differences are: -I put a triggerzone on the player not on the items because it's really easy to forget to put the trigger zone for EACH items. -Instead of UI dots on the item i use highlight that also can show siluettes if the item is behind something (this is personal difference/preference how you want to show the loot for the player) Combining this system with scriptable objects are really good, because you can make changes like which key to pick up or the item name, weight etc. and it will change in all UI of the items.

[@SpeedTutor]

That's pretty cool! Thanks for the insight. Did you use an aftermarket highlight or something you'd made yourself?

[@mrzaphkielYT]

@@SpeedTutor I used a freebie ones from the market, as a solo dev i try to cut the workload wherever i can! :)

[@SpeedTutor]

Oh definitely, I don't blame you. Which did you use out of curiosity?

[@mrzaphkielYT]

@@SpeedTutor "Quick Outline" by Chris Nolet. It pretty cool. Has a nice user friendly script and it's easy to use. Just put it on a model and you can customize the outline mode, color/opacity and width. When you are near the said gameobject just toggle the outline script on and off. :)

[@SpeedTutor]

Oh yes, I've used that one before and I think I featured it on my channel in the past! I assume you're using it for the Built-in pipeline?

[@yashkhd1100]

This is simply unbelievable...just yesterday I completed my own interaction system..and here I'm seeing this in my list. I will have a look and see what I can add more..:)

[@SpeedTutor]

Awesome, I really hope you find it useful! You take it and make it even better!

[@Phil-Elliott]

Dig the white dot a lot in games, I created a interactable script in the past myself but never thought about actually adding a visual cue. Very cool :)

[@SpeedTutor]

I do enjoy a white dot, haha. I should have made 1000 appear on screen to make you know there is an interactive object somewhere. You gotta' find the right one!

[@FaizanIzen]

Its really cool!!

[@publicmmi]

Nice tutorial! Thanks! If there is no need to show multiple texts at the same time a simple 2D text at the center could also be used instead showing text in 3d space and facing them towards the player. What i also do in my game is to show an outline of the object (in range) instead of a dot. This requires some shader or 3rd party asset.

[@SpeedTutor]

I've done exactly as you said for my own assets and I agree. Thanks for your thoughts on that. I did think I'd add a highlight but I wanted to keep this to everyone you can use in Unity (Out of the box). As in 3rd party stuff kind of starts getting messy. :)

[@gmangman123]

Thx my friend.

[@SpeedTutor]

You're very welcome, my friend! :)

[@SteveTheExploiter]

Just a personal preference, IF I have objects that need a reference and they reside within the hierarchy, I'd rather FIND them by name, than have to drag and drop them in the inspector. If you wanted to quickly make 50 of these objects, it would be a pain to drag and drop all the items into their location 50 times. For prototyping and troubleshooting, I make the fields serialized to make sure I actually find them.

[@SpeedTutor]

Pretty good suggestion, I guess you could make an editor utility to find all the references for you too :)

[@kivancoztk]

nice video

[@SpeedTutor]

I appreciate it, is it something you'd find useful?

[@kivancoztk]

@@SpeedTutor Yes, I was specifically researching how the camera captures looking at the object

[@oladelejoseph2892]

Nice Can we achieve this with uitoolkit?

[@SpeedTutor]

It doesn't currently support WorldSpace as of yet but they're working on it :)

[@aknkekw]

When I use worldscale canvas I set canvas scale x and y to 0.01, not the width and height. Is this also a way to do it or am I making a mistake?

[@SpeedTutor]

I'm not 100% clued up on exactly the best way to use World space as I don't use it often enough but I've found this way works best for my needs. That doesn't inherently mean you're doing anything wrong if it's worked out for you.

[@yassinerobot8165]

lighting unity 6 please ?

[@SpeedTutor]

I've got a video coming at APV's which is Unity's new lighting solution :)

[@androider1412]

What interaction lol?

[@SpeedTutor]

I'm not sure what I'd call it otherwise? Haha.

[@st-qo7ot]

Interaction between the player and items in game? Did you just blow in from stupid town?
