Replace mouse click by interactionA button

jeanini

Hello everybody.

I found a tutorial on youtube to make a puzzle with pipes.
All interactions are done using the mouse and in order to integrate it into my project I would like to replace the action with the left click by pressing the interaction button.

here is the script used for the action on the left click of the mouse:

private void OnMouseDown()
    {
        transform.Rotate(new Vector3(0, 0, 90));

        if (PossibleRots > 1)
        {
            if (transform.eulerAngles.z == correctRotation[0] || transform.eulerAngles.z == correctRotation[1] && isPlaced == false)
            {
                isPlaced = true;
                gameManager.correctMove();
            }
            else if (isPlaced == true)
            {
                isPlaced = false;
                gameManager.wrongMove();
            }
        }
        else
        {
            if (transform.eulerAngles.z == correctRotation[0] && isPlaced == false)
            {
                isPlaced = true;
                gameManager.correctMove();
            }
            else if (isPlaced == true)
            {
                isPlaced = false;
                gameManager.wrongMove();
            }
        }
    }
}

By what I would like to replace the OnMouseDown()?

Thx

some precisions. Currently, I can change using the left mouse click (on a piece of pipe that has a 2d Box Colider) the position of a pipe (0,90,180 or 270 deg). I would like to change the position of the pipe 'by clicking on it using the button associated with InteractionA.

OnMouseDown is a special function that detects mouse input. There isn't an equivalent for generic input detection. For that, you'd need to detect your input in an update loop:

void Update ()
{
    if (Input.GetButtonDown ("Interaction"))
    {
        // Do something
    }
}

However, this isn't involving AC - only the shared name of the "InteractionA" input you want to read. This is a topic for the general Unity forums.
