Convert keycode to ui button

[Otavio]

I have 3 scripts that serve as a control for a helicopter to run, the problem is that I changed the project from pc to android, and I need to transfer these keyboard controls to gui, but I can’t do that, and I do not even know if it’s possible .
I also tried to simulate the pressing of a key on the keyboard by pressing on the gui, but unity does not allow this.
Anyway, can anyone give me any idea how to do this?

This is the main thing.
He’s big but it’s only in the end that he has the useful part, I put it all together just so that someone needs to use it or have a base.

using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.UI;

public class HelicopterController : MonoBehaviour

I think you may want touch control. There are tutorials for it on youtube.

I already have the touch control, i just wanna know how can i link the controls on the script.

[fire7side]

Where’s your touch code?

I need to change from keycode to gui button and not the opposite, but, thank you anyway.

[methos5k]

A couple of ideas come to mind. Both involve getting your UI buttons to call methods. The first idea is that you call methods directly, doing the same work that your code is doing now when it cycles through any keys that are present.
The other option is similar, but the method just records a specific keycode (unique to the button). You’d clear this list at the beginning of each update cycle, fill it up on any click(s) per update, and fire your event.

[fire7side]

There’s a tutorial here for getting joystick and button input:
I would keep the joystick, that’s the equivalent of 4 buttons. You still probably have too many, it will cover up too much of the screen I think. I don’t know if they let you use a joystick on each side, but that would help.

Can you give me a little example of how i can call a method in my script? So I will could do the rest, and thanks for the ideia! (I know the part in the unity, like the “on click” function and set the public void there, but, i don’t know where i have to put the method to be call in the script)

There’s a tutorial here for getting joystick and button input:
I would keep the joystick, that’s the equivalent of 4 buttons. You still probably have too many, it will cover up too much of the screen I think. I don’t know if they let you use a joystick on each side, but that would help.

Yeah, i already saw this video, and now, i just need to know how my joysticks will call the method in my script.

Say you have a script on GameObject A.

On the button’s OnClick, you drag that game object into the slot and you’ll then have a drop down list of options. One of the options will be the script in question, and when you choose that you can choose a method on the script.

I would skip all the key pressed stuff. Go to this line:
foreach (var pressedKeyCode in obj){
}
Instead, use if, and else if to get the equivalent from the joystick.
if(virtualjoystick.GetAxis(“Vertical” )> 0){
//do what button did
}

Make a copy of the script first, though. Those would have to be called in an update. I don’t know if they are now.
Otherwise, you can replace the button array with a boolean array and have the virtual joystick input in the update change the bool value, but I would just use the direct approach myself.

Thank you guys, i will try to do this.

Did you fix it. I am using the exact script Ive only been able to get Engine speed control to touch.

just add ispressed script and replace the keycode with is pressed
use this script:and replace controlpanel script with this control panel

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;

public class pressedButton : MonoBehaviour
{
public bool isPressed;
public string buttName;
public void presse()
{
isPressed = true;

}
public void unpresse()
{
isPressed = false;

}

}

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;

public class ControlPanel : MonoBehaviour
{
public AudioSource MusicSound;

public pressedButton SpeedUp;
public pressedButton SpeedDown;
public pressedButton Forward;
public pressedButton Back;
public pressedButton Left;
public pressedButton Right;
public pressedButton TurnLeft;
public pressedButton TurnRight;
public pressedButton MusicOffOn;

private pressedButton[ ] keyCodes;

public Action<PressedKeyCode[ ]> KeyPressed;
private void Awake()
{
keyCodes = new[ ] {
SpeedUp,
SpeedDown,
Forward,
Back,
Left,
Right,
TurnLeft,
TurnRight
};

}

void Start()
{

}

void FixedUpdate()
{
var pressedKeyCode = new List();
for (int index = 0; index < keyCodes.Length; index++)
{
var keyCode = keyCodes[index];
if (keyCode.isPressed)
pressedKeyCode.Add((PressedKeyCode)index);
}

if (KeyPressed != null)
KeyPressed(pressedKeyCode.ToArray());

// for test
//if (Input.GetKey(MusicOffOn))
//{
// if (MusicSound.volume == 1) return;
// /* if (MusicSound.isPlaying)
// MusicSound.Stop();
// else*/
// MusicSound.volume = 1;
// MusicSound.Play();
//}

}
}
