So I have searched all over trying to find a way to use the pointer to select an object to move. My need is to be able to use the pointer (point it at the part) then using the trigger button to grab it and move it. I can get the move working ok when I physically move the controller to the object, but I want to be able to move the object from a distance…any of you smart people have or know of a script to do so ?
Have you looked at VRTK? I would suggest you use the pointer from there. You can use the onuse event to set the targeted object as child of your controller allowing you to move it around
