unity wont detect scroll wheel

Questions & Answers
1

I think I have everything right on my script but it won’t detect my scrolling, what am I doing wrong?

void Update ()
{
    if (Input.GetAxisRaw("Mouse ScrollWheel") > 0) //Forward Scroll
    {
        transform.Translate(Vector3.forward * Time.deltaTime);
    }
}

UPDATE: it seems to detect it on my player movement script, is it a problem that I attached the script to a camera that is a child of the player object?

The z axis of position will change if you use Vector3.forward in
transform.Translate(Vector3.forward * Time.deltaTime);
to move object to right or left you can use Vecter3.right or left

You sure it doesn’t detect your scrolling?

void Update ()
{
if (Input.GetAxisRaw("Mouse ScrollWheel") > 0) //Forward Scroll
{
Debug.Log("Forward"); // See Console.
transform.Translate(Vector3.forward * Time.deltaTime);
}
}

If console spat out “Forward” when you scrolled then it detected it, and you do know that (Vector3.forward * Time.deltaTime) moves only like 2px right? If your gameObject is realistic size, 2px is barely anything.

Plus you didn’t set it to Translate relative to Space.World, meaning it translating relatively to itself, which is even smaller increment.
