as a Empty Game object

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:17 PM

#

Right, but what's the empty game object?

#

Is it your player? Or is it just some object in the world

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:17 PM

#

its a object attached to my player and its a bit infront of camera so tht when im holding it i can see it and its not all up in my face

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:18 PM

#

Ok, do this for me

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:18 PM

#

and i have TheDest connected to my camera so when i look up or down it also follows,cuz the thing im working on depends on alot of bugs to solve it,so i wanna use the bug of looking down and just repititly jumping up and up

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:18 PM

#

restive shell Ok, do this for me

hm

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:18 PM

#

In your game tab, turn on gizmos

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:19 PM

#

mhhm

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:19 PM

#

What kind of collider is your player? Capsule, right?

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:19 PM

#

yup

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:20 PM

#

Oh, wait this is important

#

your game is 3D, correct?

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:20 PM

#

yup

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:20 PM

#

Ok, good

#

In gizmos, search "capsule" and make sure its ticked

#

This will show the capsule collider of your player in game (and the scene view too I believe)

#

#

also make sure boxcollider is enabled (I assume your box is a boxcollider)

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:22 PM

#

yea idk why it wouldnt be

#

both r already on

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:22 PM

#

there are strange people here

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:22 PM

#

lol

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:22 PM

#

alright good

#

You have your IDE configured correctly, right?

#

should say assembly-csharp in the top left

#

(in VS)

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:23 PM

#

yup

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:23 PM

#

alright, attach VS to unity

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:24 PM

#

hehe wht is VS

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:24 PM

#

and we're gonna make a breakpoint in OnMouseUp()

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:24 PM

#

shut tide hehe wht is VS

visual studio

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:24 PM

#

ok

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:24 PM

#

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:24 PM

#

k

#

am i supposed to wait for something cuz i cant click OK

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:25 PM

#

restive shell and we're gonna make a breakpoint in OnMouseUp()

Right click on this.transform.parent = null and go to breakpoint -> insert breakpoint

#

Oh, you have your project in a dropbox folder

#

That will cause problems

#

Dropbox likes to try to 'sync' your project files which can can do some crazy stuff

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:26 PM

#

hm

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:26 PM

#

Shouldn't be related to this issue though

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:26 PM

#

k

#

i hope not

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:26 PM

#

restive shell Right click on `this.transform.parent = null` and go to `breakpoint -> insert br...

Did you do this

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:26 PM

#

im gonna

#

thr

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:26 PM

#

Alright, after you've done that, play the game and click to pick up

#

and the game should freeze once you let go of the mouse button

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:27 PM

#

kk

#

nope

#

still running fine

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:28 PM

#

Visual studio is attached to unity?

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:28 PM

#

shut tide am i supposed to wait for something cuz i cant click OK

well idk cuz i cant click ok and idk wht tht means

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:29 PM

#

Are you clicking or going down the arrow

#

#

when you click on the arrow it should say these

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:30 PM

#

i was just clicking

#

not on the arrow

#

wht u want me to click once they all show up

#

attach and play?

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:30 PM

#

Try attaching again

#

without playing

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:31 PM

#

i never clicked tht but k

#

so u want me to click this or green arrow

#

cuz i tried both

Missed a tab

\

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:36 PM

#

thats visual scripting

#

maybe I got the tab wrong?

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:37 PM

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:37 PM

#

#

no, it's edit -> preferences -> external tools

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:38 PM

#

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:38 PM

#

and thats the version of vs you're using?

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:38 PM

#

yup

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:38 PM

#

ok well if debugging isn't gonna work, we're just gonna do it the other way

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:38 PM

#

cuz i was modding for ktane and the latest version of the modkit is on tht version and i dont know how to switch but i dont feel like switching anyways

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:38 PM

#

Just start the game, click, and pause

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:39 PM

#

oookay

#

and?

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:39 PM

#

In your scene view, is your item's collider enabled and colliding with your player?

#

If so, you probably need to move your empty transform out further

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:40 PM

#

ok the empty game object thts wht ur talking about

#

it has no collider

#

#

and this is how far it is

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:40 PM

#

Does the box have a parent?

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:41 PM

#

ayup

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:42 PM

#

hold on

#

        this.transform.position = TheDest.position;
        this.transform.parent = GameObject.Find("destination").transform;

#

Is TheDest not the GameObject named "destination"?

#

If it is, whats the point GameObject.Find

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:47 PM

#

man idk

#

its thr cuz its thr

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:49 PM

#

So your problem is the item starts spinning while you're holding it?

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:49 PM

#

yup

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:49 PM

#

In which way

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:49 PM

#

around the player

#

so for a couple seconds i see it

#

and then its behind me

#

and comes back

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:49 PM

#

so it orbits you

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:50 PM

#

yup

#

and sometimes

#

it just floats away

#

slowly

#

i think ima just record

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:50 PM

#

how about you just set the item's rigidbody to kinematic

#

RigidBody.isKinematic = false

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 9:51 PM

#

idk wht tht does so idk whr to place it in the code

#

im gonna need u to tell me

#

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 9:58 PM

#

yeah the reason its doing that is because the item is hitting the colliders on the floors/walls

#

you have gravity disabled but that just makes it float (and it orbits around you because physics)

#

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;

public class box : MonoBehaviour
{
    [SerializeField]
    private Transform destination;

    [SerializeField]
    private BoxCollider boxCollider;

    [SerializeField]
    private Rigidbody rb;

    // Start is called before the first frame update
    void OnMouseDown ()
    {
        boxCollider.enabled = false;
        rb.useGravity = false;
        rb.freezeRotation = true;
        rb.isKinematic = true;

        transform.position = destination.position;
        transform.parent = destination.transform;
    }

    void OnMouseUp ()
    {
        transform.parent = null;

        boxCollider.enabled = true;
        rb.freezeRotation = false;
        rb.useGravity = true;
        rb.isKinematic = false;
    }
}

@shut tide

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 10:04 PM

#

hoi

#

lol\

#

k ima try it

#

it works

#

its just tht

#

one thing is now missing

#

which was the hole point of why i made this

#

to be able to hold it beneath u and then keep jumping on it and then fly up,cuz the hole game is based on solving by using bugs

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 10:08 PM

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 10:09 PM

#

yup

#

not like inspired more like bored and i saw it so i was like yea i bet i could do tht

#

and steal the entire idea

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 10:10 PM

#

stealing ideas is good for learning since you don't have to worry about coming up with original ideas and you can focus on just learning

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 10:10 PM

#

yea

#

especcially since like i am super un creative

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 10:10 PM

#

i mean thats kinda the whole point of bob ross

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 10:11 PM

#

lol

#

true

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 10:11 PM

#

but anyway, I'm not sure you're ready to do those kinds of physics things unless you have the specific code to do them

#

like, even I'm not sure exactly how he got the box floating in front of himself like that

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 10:12 PM

#

idk i just know it worked before

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 10:12 PM

#

well you disabled the collider

#

so thats probably one thing

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 10:12 PM

#

then i made a script so when u fall off the platform it teleports u bakc and then BOOM it broke

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 10:12 PM

#

restive shell well you disabled the collider

i did :/

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 10:12 PM

#

so just dont disable it

#

your player can't stand on it if it has no collider

shut tide Feb 23, 2022, 10:13 PM

#

yea

#

well i did stand on it

#

but when i tried picking it up

#

i couldnt keep jumping

#

or it didnt go with me

#

when i jumped

#

up

#

and then it rotated

#

whtever i have a GREAT idea with the thing u did

restive shell Feb 23, 2022, 10:13 PM

#

ok cool

#

im gonna close this thread now

#

since the problem is solved
