Mouse sensitivity?

I'm in the process of creating a small options screen which contains a slider which I want to directly affect the sensitivity of the FPS controller. Since I have multiple cameras, and they all have mouse look scripts, is there a way to affect the core input settings of the program so I don't have to go around referencing each camera/mouselook script manually?

 

This is something where it would be appropriate to set a static variable, and then have the mouselook script multiply input by that static variable.

I just realised that the mouselook script is written in C# and my scripts are all in js.

I'm having trouble passing variables between the two. Is there an example I can follow somewhere?

 

you can't pass variables between C# and JS, you can only access in one direction, given one of the two is in an earlier buildtstep (see the advanced topics in the manual)

 

I re-wrote MouseLook in js a while ago for that reason:

Code (csharp):

1. @script AddComponentMenu ("Camera-Control/Mouse Look")
2. enum RotationAxes { MouseXAndY = 0, MouseX = 1, MouseY = 2 }
3. var axes = RotationAxes.MouseXAndY;
4. var sensitivityX : float = 15;
5. var sensitivityY : float = 15;
6.  
7. var minimumX : float = -360;
8. var maximumX : float = 360;
9.  
10. var minimumY : float = -60;
11. var maximumY : float = 60;
12.  
13. var rotationX : float = 0;
14. var rotationY : float = 0;
15.  
16. private var originalRotation : Quaternion;
17.  
18. function Update () {
19.     if (axes == RotationAxes.MouseXAndY) {
20.         rotationX += Input.GetAxis("Mouse X") * sensitivityX;
21.         rotationY += Input.GetAxis("Mouse Y") * sensitivityY;
22.  
23.         rotationX = ClampAngle (rotationX, minimumX, maximumX);
24.         rotationY = ClampAngle (rotationY, minimumY, maximumY);
25.        
26.         var xQuaternion = Quaternion.AngleAxis (rotationX, Vector3.up);
27.         var yQuaternion = Quaternion.AngleAxis (rotationY, Vector3.left);
28.        
29.         transform.localRotation = originalRotation * xQuaternion * yQuaternion;
30.     }
31.     else if (axes == RotationAxes.MouseX) {
32.         rotationX += Input.GetAxis("Mouse X") * sensitivityX;
33.         rotationX = ClampAngle (rotationX, minimumX, maximumX);
34.  
35.         xQuaternion = Quaternion.AngleAxis (rotationX, Vector3.up);
36.         transform.localRotation = originalRotation * xQuaternion;
37.     }
38.     else {
39.         rotationY += Input.GetAxis("Mouse Y") * sensitivityY;
40.         rotationY = ClampAngle (rotationY, minimumY, maximumY);
41.  
42.         yQuaternion = Quaternion.AngleAxis (rotationY, Vector3.left);
43.         transform.localRotation = originalRotation * yQuaternion;
44.     }
45. }
46.  
47. function Start () {
48.     if (rigidbody)
49.         rigidbody.freezeRotation = true;
50.     originalRotation = transform.localRotation;
51. }
52.  
53. static function ClampAngle (angle : float, min : float, max : float) : float {
54.     if (angle < -360.0)
55.         angle += 360.0;
56.     if (angle > 360.0)
57.         angle -= 360.0;
58.     return Mathf.Clamp (angle, min, max);
59. }

Eric, thanks loads for sharing. Haven't tried it yet but cheers in advance.

Edit: Implemented and works perfectly.

 

Thank you eric!
