Detailed Setup

QUICK START: You can add the Entire_Keypad_DemoScene to your scene and it will have all the keypad system setup and ready to use

Tag Setup:

  • Raycast:

    • 3D keypad model should be tagged Keypad

  • Trigger:

    • 3D keypad model should be set to Untagged

    • FPSController should be tagged Player

Detailed Setup:

1). Place the FPSController prefab in your scene from the Keypad System > Prefabs folder

  • On the MainCamera – Attach KeypadInteractor Script. (If not already).

  • Set the InteractDistance on the raycast script

  • You can set the KeypadTag here, by default it should be Keypad

  • Set the FPSController object to the tag of Player (Can be changed in the KeypadTrigger script)

Keypad UI Manager Setup:

2). Add the UIManager object into the hierarchy and add the following references:

  • Crosshair: Add the UI - Crosshair image from the child below

  • InteractPrompt: Add the UI - InteractPrompt from the child below

  • Keypad Input Fields: Add out of the UI - Type - InputFields from the children below

  • Keypad Type Canvas: Add the canvas' to the correct slot

Keypad Audio Manager

3). Add ONE AudioManager to the hierarchy:

  • Add the ScriptableObjects named:

    • SO_Denied_Tone

    • SO_Beep_Short and so on from the SOs folder

Keypad Disable Manager:

4). Add ONE Disable Manager to the hierarchy:

  • Make sure to add the FPSController object to this slot

  • Add the KeypadInteractor script (Which is on the main camera usually)

Check the Using different character controllers on the left bar for more information on changing this option

Input Manager Setup:

5). Add ONE InputManager - Make sure to set the inputs you'd like.

You can find the input handing inside the Keypad Raycast / Controller / Trigger scripts

6). You can choose to add one of the Raycast_Prefabs to your scene. (Please drag one of those out to the hierarchy! This should include: A keypad controller, keypad model, and various miscellaneous objects

Use the Raycast Prefabs if you want a First Person Interaction but the Trigger prefabs for a 3rd person or trigger style interaction!

Setting up 3D Keypad Model:

7). Open any of the Raycast or Trigger keypad collections and find the Keypad 3D model:

  • Set tag: Keypad (If using for a FirstPerson setup)

  • Has the KeypadItem script attached with the controller added to the slot

  • Has a Box Collider

KeypadController Setup:

8). Take a look at the Controller script for that set of objects - See settings below:

Unlock Event:

I have added a Unity event call for when you get the code correct

  • Click the little + icon in the bottom right, it will add a new event and you can place any gameobject which may have a script with a public method you want to call.

  • In this case I have added the door object, this has a script called DoorController which has a public method called PlayAnimation

  • You can then run this code each time you unlock something, this can be changed on each door, and multiple events can happen in each! Making life really easy! (If you need any help do let me know)
