Interactions -> Controllables for the Unity Software

Mechanisms that provide physics based and non-physics based linear and angular interactable controls for the Unity software.

Introduction

The controllable prefabs provide a way of creating an Interactable that is restricted to either a linear or angular motion and can either use Unity joints to work within the physics system or by simply updating the Interactable transform properties to not use any Unity physics at all. The four prefabs that are provided are:

• Physics Joint - Uses Unity joints for physics based interactions
  • Linear Joint Drive - Moves in a single axis direction along a configured Unity joint for a limited distance.
  • Angular Joint Drive - Rotates around a single axis around a Unity hinge joint for a limited angular distance.
• Transform - Directly manipulates the Transform position of the drive to move or rotate without being part of the Unity physics system.
  • Linear Transform Drive - Moves in a single axis direction for a limited distance.
  • Angular Transform Drive - Rotates around a single axis for a limited angular distance.

Requires the Unity software version 2018.3.10f1 (or above).
