Issue with the 2D Demo

Fedek72

So sorry to ask a so easy question, I arrived to AC only 2 days ago... I'm following the tutorial, but when I arrive to the chapter about the hotspot... I cannot find the way to activate the menu interaction. I set as the tutorial said "Choose interaction the hot spot"... but the right click doesn't work (I have a Mac with touchpad... so CTRL+click). On the contrary if I set "Choose hotspot than interaction" it works! Like the demo that has this setting.
Could someone give me a suggestion? I'm getting crazy!
Thanks a lot

Sorry, with double fingers on the touchpad it works... but not with CTRL and click

Welcome to the community, @Fedek72.

I'm on a Mac w/ touchpad as well. AC detects the right-mouse button to cycle through interactions (as well as any input named "CycleCursors"), so what counts as a "simulated" right-click on touchpads is handled by Unity. AC itself isn't detecting for double-fingers directly.

However, it is possible to override AC's input detection through script. This is a pretty advanced topic (see the Manual's "Remapping inputs" chapter if you are interested), but the following script should force detection for control+clicking manually:

using UnityEngine;
using AC;

public class MacRightClick : MonoBehaviour
{

    private bool controlRightClick;


    void Start ()
    {
        KickStarter.playerInput.InputGetButtonDownDelegate = CustomGetButtonDown;
    }


    private void OnGUI ()
    {
        if (Event.current != null)
        {
            Event current = Event.current;
            if (current.isMouse && current.control)
            {
                controlRightClick = true;
            }
        }
    }


    private void LateUpdate ()
    {
        controlRightClick = false;
    }


    private bool CustomGetButtonDown (string buttonName)
    {
        if (buttonName == "CycleCursors" && controlRightClick)
        {
            controlRightClick = false;
            return true;
        }

        try
        {
            return Input.GetButtonDown (buttonName);
        }
        catch {}

        return false;
    }

}

Paste that into a new C# script named MacRightClick.cs, and attach the new "Mac Right Click" component to a GameObject in your scene. You should find that you can then cycle through the various cursors using both methods.
