Picking up Boxes/The ability to interact with Rigidbodies

Well, I want the ability to pick up boxes and move them around, say… the same way one would do in a game like portal or half life 2. I hope that some of you can help me with this problem, as my game isn’t really fun without something to interact with.

Hi @Suslendrw and welcome!

Maybe my drag and drop example project can help you.

https://playcanvas.com/project/874243/overview/drag-and-drop

It sadly doesn’t work It gives me an error that says:

TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading ‘screenToWorld’)

It has to be assigned to a camera entity for it to work

ohh.

It didn’t work.

If you share the editor link of your project someone can take a look.

It all works in the example project and you can see the setup of it as well.

There is a problem with the script on the camera entity. I guess removing the script from the entity and add it again will solve this problem.

Mostly this problem occurs when you for example rename a script, but I’m not sure what the reason is in this case.

Hmm.
