Not working 3rd person NestedParentCapsule with joystick

most importantly it seems you are looking for resources for using the unity "starter assets" mobile ui and third person controller. here is a video tutorial with chapters marked etc https://youtu.be/CD0FlqllfIE

@shell pilot I've got it all set up. but I can't use the joysticks in testing (On desktop)

[shell pilot]

have you tried the (mobile) device simulator? https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/device-simulator-view.html

[strange nacelle]

Just did that right now and got this error at the bottom

the minute I did that I got that error 😐

[shell pilot]

@strange nacelle also the video tutorial i linked above shows that this input debugger option to simulate touch input is enabled to make it work, did you try that?

[strange nacelle]

I'm not following that tut rn. where do I go to bring that menu up?

[shell pilot]

it's in the video, i'll let you check it yourself. mobile segment starts at 9:59

[strange nacelle]

all that's doing is confusing me

Legit. I'm getting a headache man

[strange nacelle]

I've done what she's shown but nthn

It stil wont work

Just got this instead 😐

ugh this is frustraiting can I send you my project so you can take a look and tell me in depth where I've screwed up?

that's just one error, pretty generic. usually meaning something isn't assigned in the inspector on the right. click on the console tab to see all errors and they may be more descriptive and you can copy and paste them and search the web for their meanings.

[shell pilot]

i feel you, maybe take a break for an hour and come back to it, helps me.

[strange nacelle]

you think I've not done that 💀

[shell pilot]

lol i see

[strange nacelle]

can I send you my project? or you set one up for me? because I'm really desperate rn istg

I get you might be busy. but you could get it back to me when you get it finished. I'm just so desperate rn 😔

[shell pilot]

i'm not able to do that today anyway, sorry. but maybe there is a project already set up floating around.

if it makes you feel any better, this person's opinion is that the starter assets aren't so beginner friendly https://youtu.be/_yHrWQiJfJ0

[strange nacelle]

well if it is it's VERY well hidden because I've not fond shi-💩 so far

Could you help me find one?

AY THIS ACTUALLY MIGHT HELP COME TO A CONCLUSION @shell pilot THE ERROR ONLY SHOWED UP WHEN I CLICKED ON ANYTHING IN THE UI.. NOT WHEN I WAS USING WASD

[shell pilot]

hmm i find a whole project but found this forum thread with a question and answers https://forum.unity.com/threads/say-hello-to-the-new-starter-asset-packages.1123051/

[strange nacelle]

I double clicked the error and now it's openeing visual studio

[strange nacelle]

Ok? but where's the bit I need to be reading 🫠

Nvm it works 😐

you could've told me

rather than shove a paragraph in my face 😭

[shell pilot]

idk what was going to be the most helpful in there or what you hadn't already tried. just that it had a lot of info and likely discussion from others with similar issues.

you found the solution there in less than a minute anyway lol. so you obviously didn't need any assistance with finding what was relevant. i just pointed you in the right direction. and i didn't even get a thank you for the free consult, but it's all good lol.
