Using this tutorial we can place objects on the surface by finger tap.
How can we change the script to place objects while swiping a finger across the screen, so that placing objects would be like "painting" area where they should be placed?
Here is the script for placing from the tutorial:
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
public class KittyUIController : MonoBehaviour
{
public GameObject m_kitten;
private TangoPointCloud m_pointCloud;
void Start()
{
m_pointCloud = FindObjectOfType<TangoPointCloud>();
}
void Update ()
{
if (Input.touchCount == 1)
{
// Trigger place kitten function when single touch ended.
Touch t = Input.GetTouch(0);
if (t.phase == TouchPhase.Ended)
{
PlaceKitten(t.position);
}
}
}
void PlaceKitten(Vector2 touchPosition)
{
// Find the plane.
Camera cam = Camera.main;
Vector3 planeCenter;
Plane plane;
if (!m_pointCloud.FindPlane(cam, touchPosition, out planeCenter, out plane))
{
Debug.Log("cannot find plane.");
return;
}
// Place kitten on the surface, and make it always face the camera.
if (Vector3.Angle(plane.normal, Vector3.up) < 30.0f)
{
Vector3 up = plane.normal;
Vector3 right = Vector3.Cross(plane.normal, cam.transform.forward).normalized;
Vector3 forward = Vector3.Cross(right, plane.normal).normalized;
Instantiate(m_kitten, planeCenter, Quaternion.LookRotation(forward, up));
}
else
{
Debug.Log("surface is too steep for kitten to stand on.");
}
}
}
