What if you could just CLICK on your terrain or mesh object and instantly teleport across your vast scene?

Are you making a large open world scene? A giant spaceship? A dangerous labrynth? A claustaophic cave system?

How do you get around? WASD?

What if there is a BETTER way?

Introducing: Scene Pilot! It’s like Fast Travel for the Scene View. Once you try it, you’ll wonder why no one has thought of this yet – until now!

Take a look:

It’s 4x Faster than normal WASD Movement (at least!)

Why did I make this thing?

Story Time

Like many of you, I’m working on a dream project. A vast wilderness with a 5km square terrain that needs to be completely filled with detail. As the project grew, so did the lag. Getting around my scene became increasingly frustrating. WASD started to lag, causing me to overshoot my destination constantly. If I wanted to get from one end to another, I would trek forward with “W” and slowly watch my speed accellerate, and accellerate, and suddenly I see my target whiz by. It would sometimes take 5 minutes just to frame up the area I want to design!

So I thought this was ridiculous, why can’t I just click and go? So, I got to work. I was so charmed by my initial tests that I kept adding to the idea. It was cool that I could traverse 5km in a second, but I didn’t really know where I was actually headed. So I put a preview window overlayed over top of my mouse. That was super cool! But then I got thinking, “Man, I wish I could slightly rotate the view to the left a bit… and maybe rise the camera up a few units”… next thing you know, I’m developing one of the most unique assets you’ll find on the store.

It’s honestly SO MUCH FUN just jumping around my scene, exploring interesting camera angles that I wouldn’t have had the time to position before. Not only do you save HOURS in navigation, but you could also use this to show friends and colleagues what you’re working on!

FEATURES

  • Teleport quickly with JUST ONE CLICK
  • Convenient PREVIEW BOX shows you exactly where you’ll end up
  • Fine tune the ROTATION and POSITION prior to travel
  • Get the perfect view with PRECISION MODE
  • Customize HOT KEYS to ensure compatibility with your other must have assets
  • Configure ALMOST EVERYTHING to your liking
  • Great way to SHOW OFF YOUR LEVEL to friends and colleagues

HOW IT WORKS

Just hover over the Scene View and hit SHIFT+CTRL (configurable) and you’ll see a preview box pop up with your destination. Right Click and BAM! You’re there!

If you instead hold down the Right Button and drag around you can adjust your final rotation!

Also press and hold your Middle Button and pan your position up/down/left/right.

You can use the Scroll Wheel to walk forwards or backwards into your ideal position.

Press ALT and all adjustments will be very small and precise.

Now just release and YOU’RE THERE!

Don’t worry, this is all designed to feel very intuitive, you’ll get the hang of it in no time!

All movements can be inverted to your preference.

CUSTOMER SUPPORT IS OUR HIGHEST PRIORITY AND WE WELCOME FEEDBACK AND SUGGESTIONS!

I will send you a DM when it’s on the store. Looking forward to your feedback as my goal is to make this a fully integrated part of your design experience. I already have a few ideas for additional features and enhancements that’ll hit a future update. I’ve tested it quite a bit but there’s always the chance at a bug or two, when identified I’ll work to fix it asap! I’m here for the long haul.

I have this bookmarked, so I will see this asap it is on the store. I have a good feeling about this asset for you.
It seems very good idea and execution. If it works the way I see it, I don’t know, I think this is worth way more then 10 $
even. Think how much time it could save studios… Even just as a hobby for me… I am looking forward to
seeing it on the store. I hope you do very well by it. :slight_smile:

Thanks a lot! I hope you’re right! Thing is, I hope everyone who’s using Unity will want to grab this so I’m trying to keep the price as a no brainer for the hobbiest to the big studio (it is a per seat cost so big studios will pay more anyway!)

I’m also working on a few other really cool assets that’ll greatly enhance your development process. Once I get a few on the store I’ll likely produce a “bundled” version as well.

Your early support means I can dedicate even more time to making these nifty little tools first class features.

If you notice the asset store slowing down its because I’ve been hitting F5 on the status page all day long! (Kidding!.. Or am I?)

Another of our assets, Perfect F, is now live! Check it out at the asset store here:

Another video for Perfect F. Yes, these two assets work very well together.

Vanilla F vs Perfect F with a UI Canvas:

I just added an “UNDO” function, so that if you fly somewhere but don’t really like where you landed, you can revert to the position you started at. Coming in the next update!
