URP Setup

SETTING UP TAGS

• Make sure to create tags called:

  • "ExaminePoint" (Tag for the "ExaminePoint" gameobject parented to the "ExamineCamera")

  • "InspectPoint" (Tag for every single inspect point that exists for an object)

• Create two layers:

  • “ExamineLayer” (Doesn't need to be added to objects, referenced in code)

  • "InspectPointLayer" (Tag for every single inspect point)

NOTE: If you need to know what tags go on which game object, see the page below:

GameObject Tag Reference

URP Basic Setup:

1. Select your "Main Camera" and set the "Culling Mask" so that you UNTICK the "ExamineLayer" & "InspectPointLayer" - As we don't want the main camera to render our examinable objects.

2. Select the “Examine Camera” and make sure the “Culling Mask” is set to “ExamineLayer” & "InspectPointLayer" – Make sure to create this in the layers at the top right of the inspector if not already

3. Make sure that all inspect points have the layer of: "InspectPointLayer" and NOT "ExamineLayer" or it will not detect them.

4. Select the “Examine Camera” and make sure it’s type is “Overlay Camera” and NOT “Base”. Only one camera, your main camera should be set to “Base”.

5. On the "Main Camera" find the "Stack" options and click the "+" icon and now add the "ExamineCamera" to this slot
