Interactable
The Interactable monobehaviour is required on any Prefab that the player will be able to interact with. It is also required on Prefabs that are remotely controlled by switches.
Usage
All Interactables can have one or more interactable options. The Interactable component allows the object to be interacted with, and the Interactable Options provide unique functionality and interaction options.
Properties
Interactable has the following properties.
Show Tooltip
If true, a UI tooltip will be shown when the mouse hovers over the object.
Interactable Name
The name of the object that will be shown in the mouseover tooltip.
Glow On Mouse Over
If true, the material of the object will be replaced with a glowing material while the mouse is hovering over it.
Glow Color
The default color of the glow outline. This will be overridden on character units depending on the faction relationship color.
Interaction Tooltip Text
Set this value to override the default 'Interact' option for the gamepad interaction tooltip
Not Interactable
Set this value to prevent direct interaction from the player. This can be useful for interactables that only need to be activated with control switches.
Interact With Any
Set this to true to allow triggering interaction with anything that has a collider, not just players.
Interact On Exit
Set this to true to cause the interaction to trigger on when something exits the collider.
Is Trigger
If true, interaction is triggered by a collider, and not by clicking with the mouse
Suppress Interaction Window
Set this to true to automatically activate the first interactable instead of opening the interaction window and presenting the player with interaction options.
Override Interaction Collider Size
If true, the InteractionRange collider will be set to the new extents in the Interaction Max Range field.
Interaction Max Range
For everything except character unit interactions, the interactor must be within this range of this objects collider. This does not apply to interactions triggered by switches.
Interaction Points
The prefered locations that units wanting to interact will move to, based on NavMeshPath completeness.
Component Controller
Reference to local component controller prefab with nameplate target, speakers, etc.
Persistent Object Component
Persist Interactable Data
Set this to true to save and load interactable data for this interactable. This is only necessary if the interactable has interactable options that need to save data, such as loot or a door that can be opened/closed.
Has Nameplate
Set this to true to have a nameplate appear over the object. The nameplate will show the interactable's name and any interactable options it has.
Nameplate Props
Locking
Locked
If true, the Interactable will be locked and require a key to interact with it. If false, the Interactable will not be locked and can be interacted with without a key.
Key Name
The name of the key item required to interact with the Interactable if it is locked. This should be the resource name of the item, not the display name. If this value is blank, the Interactable will not be locked.
Remove Key On Interact
If true, the key will be removed from the player's inventory when they interact with the Interactable. If false, the player will still have the key after interacting with the Interactable.
Unlock On Interact
If true, the Interactable will be unlocked when the player interacts with it if they have the key. If false, the player will still be able to interact with it, but it will remain locked for others.
Nameplate Props
Display Name
This is what will be printed on the nameplate above the object. It will also override whatever value is set for the Interactable mouseover display name.
Override Nameplate Position
If true, the nameplate position will be set to this value.
Nameplate Position
The position of the NamePlate anchor, relative to the unit pivot.
Dependencies
Any interactable that will be directly interacted with needs a Collider component, so that it can be clicked on.
One or more Interactable Option Components must be present for any interactions to be possible.
