Title: Using objects as buttons
Post by: Ingsoc75 on November 16, 2017, 04:00:54 PM

I've gone through tutorials where I can use a uGUI button to make other objects do things but I can't seem to figure out this:

How can I have an object (like a mesh) be a button to control another object?

Hi,
You can get the "ugui proxy full" from the Ecosystem (https://hutonggames.fogbugz.com/default.asp?W1181)

or to send an event you can do this :

on the "button component" @ the 'On Click ()' click on +
Then below "Runtime Only" drop in the game object with the fsm that you want to send an event to.

Then Click on "No Function" and select 'PlayMaker FSM/Send Event.
The Below that, place the event name that you want to send.
