Only updating once during left mouse button being held down.
I'm trying to detect when left click is held down on every frame, it should check to see if it still being held. I've put it in 'function Update' but it only shows up once even when held down. I want it to continuously detect it until released.
Code:
function Update () {
if (Input.GetMouseButton(0))
{
IncreasePowerBar();
}
}
function IncreasePowerBar()
{
Debug.Log("fire button");
}
Currently the Log only shows once when the LMB is held down, and doesnt even show a second time even if I release and re-click
Thanks in advance
Do you have your console collapsed?
In the Console window, make sure the tab Collapse is off !
http://docs.unity3d.com/Documentation/Manual/Console.html
When Collapse is enabled, identical messages will only be shown once.
It catches a few people !
No worries, just added more info, but glad it fixed the problem =]
In the manual it says:
Description Returns true during the frame the user pressed the given mouse button.
That means it will only trigger once, when you click. To do continuous stuff based on the mouse being up or down, you will need to toggle a variable when you click down, and toggle it again when you click up.
Input.GetMouseButtonDown documentation.
function Update () {
if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0))
{
IncreasePowerBar();
}
}
function IncreasePowerBar()
{
Debug.Log("fire button");
}
Add a Debug.Log("$$anonymous$$ouse Button 0 Down") into the updates if block, if by clicking and holding and repeating, do you get the log message?
The Debug.Log does detect the mouse button being clicked, but i only comes up once. When i click multiple times it does nothing.
