9.4 Click Painter

Component: ClickPainter

This component allows the player to change the material on objects. You need to provide a list of materials to choose from, and a tag representing the objects that can be repainted. Legacy GUI is not recommended for mobile (in this case you must implement your own). Once the materials and tags are set, make sure this object is enabled when you want the player to be able to change the materials on an object. Then, when the player clicks the indicated mouse button (0 = left, 1 = right, 2 = middle) on an object with a listed tag, they will be able to change it’s materials using the GUI.
