No Yellow Hotspot in Game Editor

7StonesStudio

I am following the First-person Primer tutorial YouTube video.

When you create the hotspot for the whiteboard, a yellow box appears. However, when I create a hotspot for an object in my game, no yellow box appears.

I have tried to create a hotspot, either from the hierarchy, the hotspot button in the AC Game Controller, or even directly on an object in the inspector. I am not able to see the yellow hotspot box at all.

The hotspot also doesn't work in the game scene either. So when I drag my cursor over the object where the hotspot should be, nothing happens.

Please assist me with this issue, thank you!

For a Hotspot to be interactive, it requires a Collider component of the type that matches the game's perspective. In a 3D, first-person game, this means either a Box, Sphere, Capsule, or Mesh Collider.

Does your Hotspot object have one of these types, or is it using a 2D Collider instead?

Does the Hotspot show up in your Hierarchy?

"when I drag my cursor over the object" sounds like you are not in First Person mode, is the Game Setup correctly as a 3D First Person Game?

Can you go through the Adventure Creator Tab -> Getting Started -> New Game Wizard and set it up with 3D -> First Person -> Mouse and Keyboard -> Context Sensitive.

You can also leave the check on the 3D Sample Scene right there, so you have a ready scene to test in.

(If this doesn't get setup automatically:)
Open up that Game which should have its own Folder and the corresponding Manager Package in its root, so it has all the right AC Managers Setup.

And then try to add a Hotspot again?

Just to try out if it works, you can delete that new Game Folder later.

If none of that works:
Have you tried to create a new Project with only AC and set it up as a First Person Game and see how it behaves there?
