Question by Keegz · May 29, 2013 at 09:54 AM · mousecursortargetcustomshooter

How to center custom cursor

Hello

I got this C# script from another Unity user but I am unable to center the cursor, it stays on the default layout. I am trying to create a 2D style shooter using the mouse as the scope target. Here is my code.

 using UnityEngine;
 using System.Collections;
 
 public class Cursor : MonoBehaviour { public Texture2D cursorImage;
 
 private int cursorWidth = 320;
 private int cursorHeight = 320;
  
 void Start()
 {
     Screen.showCursor = false;
 }
  
  
 void OnGUI()
 {
     GUI.DrawTexture(new Rect(Input.mousePosition.x, Screen.height - Input.mousePosition.y, -cursorWidth, -cursorHeight), cursorImage);
 }
 }

Well, there is a simple yet effective solution, already over here:


JAVASCRIPT:

 function Start (){

     Screen.lockCursor = true; 

 }



C#:

 void Start (){
     Screen.lockCursor = true; 
 }


Please do not ask before searching again, as many of us have little time.

I am sorry but I have searched and (Screen.lockCursor = true;) works fine if you are creating a 3D shooter but since I am creating a 2D shooter with a custom cursor using the mouse as the target it does not work.

Ah, well, that can also be arranged. However, I know little in the aspect of 2D in unity. I am sorry for giving you the wrong answer, however many of unity's scripting features exist already and do not need further development.

In terms of centering the image on the cursor, you need to change your DrawTexture call as follows:

 GUI.DrawTexture(new Rect(Input.mousePosition.x, Screen.height - Input.mousePosition.y, -cursorWidth/2.0, -cursorHeight/2.0), cursorImage);

Actually I'd go one step further and get rid of cursorWidth and cursorHeight:

 GUI.DrawTexture(new Rect(Input.mousePosition.x, Screen.height - Input.mousePosition.y, -cursorImage.width/2.0, -cursorImage.height/2.0), cursorImage);
