Unity 2019.3 - Unlocking the mouse cursor

[@mateodemicheli2420]

This video it is exactly what I was looking for, and it makes me feel not that bad for not know how to reactivate a cursor. Keep like this and be safe :D

[@FLIZTERYT]

IKR!

[@relarin952]

Super appreciate you, Spent hours trying to figure out why I couldn't click buttons but not this makes a lot of sense.

[@zachguillet9315]

Thank you so much I spent the whole day working on this and you explained it in 6 minutes and 24 seconds

where did you attack the script

[@zachguillet9315]

@ I put it on a empty object

[@funnymoondog1xx486]

This is very great and simple. I like how you put it into detail and give it some perspective for viewers to connect to. This is perfect for pretty much any genre of game

[@MROCTAGON-uw7ry]

[@pancakebananasplash]

[@3d_nahla289]

[@phantomapprentice6749]

Thank you , its amazing how I found no mention of this elsewhere.

[@kijjamburodney3086]

Thank you so much for this. It is definitely a lifesaver for future FPS games i want to make.

[@raydartt]

I have been working for a year on my game and was ready to give up (not really). When I added an inventory window I couldn't point to anything. I have been looking for days for an answer and finally I have the solution. I added the code to my inventory window scripts so when i open my inventory window the cursor appears and then disappears when I close the window. Perfect. Thanks Grass Cat.

[@RichardFleming]

Excellent, glad to hear I could help you get unstuck :)

[@AbhimanyuVenu]

[@tiggs_4429]

THANK U SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH! IVE BEED LOOKING FOR SOMETHING FOR OVER TWO MONTHS!

[@FC12CGaming]

can you link the script because my one has a error

[@matus5422]

using System.Collections; using System.Collections.Generic; using UnityEngine; public class MainMenuUI : MonoBehaviour { // Start is called before the first frame update void Start() { UnlockMouse(); } // Update is called once per frame void Update() { } void UnlockMouse() { Cursor.lockState = CursorLockMode.None; Cursor.visible = true; } }

[@Tyl8rr]

It says that "Cursor" does not contain a defenition for lock state :/

[@amaxunny7973]

My mouse is flickering why?

[@discocat9431]

WinUI.gameObject.SetActive(true); Cursor.visible = true; Cursor.lockState = CursorLockMode.None; I type these and when my UI gets enabled I can see my cursor but it doesn't unlock. I made another separated script from the player and there it gets unlocked. Weird. Also the cursor blinks

[@dark_teddy]

God, thank you so much man, I've been trying to figure this out for so long.

[@Wa515]

Thank you, but after my cursor becomes visible, the buttons are not pressed :(

[@RichardFleming]

Unfortunately this could be from a whole host of other issues. The most common mistake I've seen where the buttons stop responding is that the Event System GameObject no longer exists, so you might want to double check for that.

[@Wa515]

@@RichardFleming thank you, I've already fixed this

[@inquisitive240]

TOOK ME SO LONG TO FINALLY FIND THISSSSS THANK YOU edit: Wait I'm trying to make a pause menu so what do I do to lock and unlock because I tried doing void LockMouse() { Cursor.lockState = CursorLockMode.Locked; Cursor.visible = false; } void UnlockMouse() { Cursor.lockState = CursorLockMode.None; Cursor.visible = true; } and calling it from different states but when I unpause it doesn't seem to work

[@pumpkinisland12]

It doesn’t work for me, it still just disappears when i click on a button and does nothing

Can link the script?it's giving me errors

[@maqsreal]

me too

[@matus5422]

using System.Collections; using System.Collections.Generic; using UnityEngine; public class MainMenuUI : MonoBehaviour { // Start is called before the first frame update void Start() { UnlockMouse(); } // Update is called once per frame void Update() { } void UnlockMouse() { Cursor.lockState = CursorLockMode.None; Cursor.visible = true; } }

[@jozatheman]

God bless you man, helped allot

[@1___________________1-n6i]

whats weird is that my cursor was unlocked from before. one day when i start unity it got locked

[@RichardFleming]

Odd indeed. If I were to take a guess, it sounds like you added in a component that was locking the cursor. There is no way to tell if a component, or a prefab containing said component, locks the cursor without looking at the code.

[@1___________________1-n6i]

@@RichardFleming well, this fixed it anyways. so thanks!
