MDM_MeshSlime

Namespace: MDPackage.Modifiers

Interactive soft 'slime' modifier with advanced settings. Contains a simple input-hookups.

The input is not handled by default, as the Unity Engine has many options for handling input and controls in general.
MD-Package components that contain some input features consist of 'Input Hookup' properties that handle the input in a generic way.
You can set these properties from your own input system. The component will display more information about the input setup, so please follow up on this information.
You can find all the input-hookup properties below.

Examples

The following paragraphs contain Mesh Slime modifier used in a practical example. Hence the custom input handling.

using UnityEngine;
using MDPackage.Modifiers;

[RequireComponent(typeof(MeshFilter))]
public class SampleScript : MonoBehaviour
{
// Cache main camera in the inspector!
public Camera mainCam;

private MDM_MeshSlime slime;

private void Start()
{
// Add/Create a Mesh Slime modifier to this object right after start
slime = gameObject.AddComponent<MDM_MeshSlime>();
// Enable useNormalSmoothingAngle for 'smoother' looking normals + other params
slime.useNormalSmoothingAngle = true;
slime.restore = true;
slime.mainRadius = 0.15f;
// Add mesh collider for raycast detection
gameObject.AddComponent<MDPackage.MD_MeshColliderRefresher>();
}

private void Update()
{
// Main camera must be initialized
if (!mainCam || !slime)
return;

// Additional extensions for mesh
// If Space is pressed, subdivide mesh if possible
if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Space))
slime.MDModifier_SubdivideMesh();
// If S is pressed, smooth mesh
if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.S))
slime.MDModifier_SmoothMesh();
// If R is pressed, restore mesh
if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.R))
slime.MDModifier_RestoreMesh();

// Mesh Slime modifier has already a built-in raycast detection, all is left is the input. Pass the input via Input-Hookups:

slime.InputHook_CursorScreenPosition = Input.mousePosition;
slime.InputHook_GenericButtonDown = Input.GetKey(KeyCode.Mouse0);
}
}
