Load new scene on object click

Question

I'm exploring other options but i'll also ask here.

I'm trying to set up a simple script so when a UI pointer on the FPS controller moves over objects, text comes up and if clicked a new scene is loaded. I tried a basic collider system where you enter the collider and click e, but it's imprecise and wasn't working.

Now i'm thinking a better option would be ray casting. So when the pointer moves over an item with a collider trigger and is clicked it will load the new scene. Problem is Ive never actually done ray casting and am having a really hard time coming up with a script to work here. It seems simple enough but I'm entry level C#. A lot of the previous answers to this question Ive found are outdated now.

So basically I just want a scrip so when the player goes up and looks at specific objects a text prompt comes up that says the objects name, and when you click it loads a new scene. I'm working on my C# but right now I'm floundering and rely heavily on help so if you can help I would greatly appreciate it.

Try using raycast to detect that specific object https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Physics.Raycast.html Confirm Detection using simple if condition , using object name or by using tag on object https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/Tags.html if condition is true use a pop up that will get active using popupname.SetActive(True); use a button to load new/next scene SceneManager.LoadScene("SceneName"); Hopefully it will work.

Alright this was actually helpful in trying to figure out what all to do, but I'm not 100% sure where to start with the script or how to put it all together into a working one. Again I'm pretty entry C#. I mostly do sculpting modeling texturing and level design so scripting is still an area where I'm lacking.
