Can you screenshot this gameobject's inspector?

I presume it's still interactable when spawned

simple pine Nov 17, 2021, 7:20 AM

#

Hold on

(the Canvas Group)

simple pine Nov 17, 2021, 7:20 AM

#

No, lemme check

#

Yes, it is on

#

can you screenshot the stuff that's under this part of the hierarchy in play mode, like playermenu, and whatever else is there. If they have UI elements that accept input they could be blocking the buttons

simple pine Nov 17, 2021, 7:22 AM

#

Wait, hmm

#

They shouldn't... because I can still interact with stuff in the hud

#

If i put a button there it works

#

do the UI_Window or UI_Window_Dialogue scripts implement any of the IPointer interfaces (or any of the other input interfaces?)

How do I check?

Open the scripts and look at what they inherit from that isn't just MonoBehaviour

simple pine Nov 17, 2021, 7:26 AM

#

Yes, they are both mono

#

To confirm, you're saying you can put a button up around here in the hierarchy and it'll be clickable?
Is that the case over parts of the screen closer to the buttons with the input issue?

#

It's really hard to hunt this down haha

#

You might be able to select the Event System in the scene, and look at the preview section when hovering the buttons that don't work

#

see if it gives you information about what you're hovering

simple pine Nov 17, 2021, 7:29 AM

#

Wait, I was able to fix it

#

Odd fix too... just remove some stuff

lost wraith Nov 17, 2021, 7:30 AM

#

I presume whatever that stuff is was absorbing the events via one method or another

simple pine Nov 17, 2021, 7:30 AM

#

I think

#

Wait I think there was an error

#

Because I remember there being one when the player interacted with the object to do all this, now it is gone

#

Maybe it disabled the gameobject?

#

Hmm... still here

#

The error for the player still happens...

I'm not quite sure what you're talking about now, but if you return to the original issue I think this should help discover what's blocking input

simple pine Nov 17, 2021, 7:34 AM

#

Ooo sorry bout that

#

Everything works now though!

lost wraith Nov 17, 2021, 7:36 AM

#

Awesome, what was it? I Missed what you changed

simple pine Nov 17, 2021, 7:36 AM

#

Oh, so I basically removed something complicated. In the UI script, there was a reference to all windows loaded currently, but I guess it wasn't the best, so I removed it

#

Also removed the UI_Window script and the Canvas Group

simple pine Nov 17, 2021, 7:37 AM

This happened due to not checking if the hit of a Physics.Raycast(out hit) was even there, heh

#

Thanks Vertx!!

No worries, I feel like I still don't quite know what was causing the issue, but I'm glad it's fixed haha
