I am developing a mobile game where I have to work with multiple screen sizes. For UI, it is easy because I can just use the Canvas Scaler component.
Is there an easy way to do this for non-UI elements? Maybe some kind of script to set the position on the new screen size relative to the position on a reference screen size? Or can I set a GameObject's position for different screen sizes manually in any way?
Any help is appreciated 🙂

I mean. U dont have to do anything. its how it works. Unity doing it by it self.

What do you mean it works by itself? If it would work by itself, I wouldn't ask the question.

exactly what i mean
3d objects relatives positions, sizes and scales on a scene dont changes if there is more or less pixels on the screen (resolutions)
only if there ratio of a screen size changes like was 16:9 and now its 18:9 - then it just gonna see more or less of scene
but still nothing changes
not positions or sizes or any other relatives
could you mb give more info then? mb some screenshots? or anything

This is my problem. For example, if I change the ratio from 18:9 Portrait to anything else that has "Portrait" in it, the UI scales perfectly using the Canvas Scaler but the non-UI GameObjects need to resize aswell, which they don't do at the moment, hence why I am asking this question.
And I want to know how I would approach this problem because I don't really know how to :/
Please ping me if you reply, so I can answer quickly

as i already told. could u drop some screenshots of objects that got resized and how

I guess they don't technically resize, they just reposition themselves.
But if I were to put a triangle like so:
It doesn't resize with the screen size because it's not UI
But I want it's size to be relative to the screen size
I am sorry, I can't explain it very well, but do you understand my issue now @empty lichen ?

it seems like u wonna use primitives so why dont just make them canvas objects (pictures) as well? or if u rly wonna introduce complex 3d objects with lots of meshes and forms u can calculate appropriate scale multiplayer for each of the directions of the objects relative to the Screen.currentResolution properties.
but if this objects should use physics and not just visuals i wouldn't recommend that cause u literally changing the object. so every thing that gonna interract with it gonna be different as well. (literally different game-play results on different screen's )

The final objects will just use a constant velocity. Is velocity affected by size?

depends on u'r code (realisation). on default - no.

Allright, I will try to realize your solution. I might have an additional question later if you don't mind
