The purpose of these scripts are to improve the rendering and behavior of Overhead UI.

Instructions:

• Attach any of the scripts to the following Prefabs (or similarly created prefabs)
  • CanvasOwningCharacterUI
  • CanvasNonOwningCharacterUI
  • CanvasMonsterCharacterUI
  • CanvasNPCUI
  • (To leverage the harvestable overhead ui, you need to create a CanvasHarvestableUI with UI Harvestable Entity and replace instances of Harvestable Entity with "Harvestable Entity with UI")
• Configure the parameters of the scripts to meet your needs
• Watch the magic!

The purpose of these scripts are to improve tab targeting Instructions:

• In the extended PlayerCharacterController, remember to remove the Input.GetButtonDown("FindEnemy") handling, as this will replace it
• In your overwritten PlayerCharacterController, add the following:

  public override void UpdateInput() {
      // some logic
      if (ConstructingBuildingEntity == null)
      {
          UpdateSelectedTarget();
          Targeting.HandleTargeting();
          // Remove the Input.GetButtonDown("FindEnemy") check and execution!
          // some more logic
      }
      // the rest of the logic
  }
  
  protected override void OnPointClickOnGround(Vector3 targetPosition)
  {
      Targeting.m_currentlySelectedTarget = null;
      // do stuff or not (if you dont call base.OnPointClickOnGround it will disable click to move on the ground)
  }
  

Controls:

• Hitting tab will select closest targetable harvestable/npc/player/monster
• Hitting tab after will move the target to the right
• Holding shift and hitting tab will move the target to the left
• Hitting tab/shift+tab will cycle the target from the other end if you reach the end of the targetable list
