2020.1.60.3 Slide Switch



Overview

The Slide Switch is a component that simulates a physical control switch.

The Slide Switch only works in runtime.


Where to find

The Slide switch can be found under Standard Components > Slide Switch > Add Physical component.

This will add the Slide Switch component to the currently selected object or create a new empty GameObject with the component attached if no objects are selected. If there is no Prismatic Joint present on the object it will also be added.

The Slide Switch must be placed as a child of a Kinematic Controller in the hierarchy.

  1. Test if the actions are executed in runtime.
