Detecting what mouse clicked on the scene editor window

I'm developing a tile editor within unity and I want to be able to detect what the mouse is clicking on (in the scene editor window). I know this is not a new topic but I did a lot of research but my ray calculations seem to be off for some reason.

Code (csharp):

1.  
2.     void SceneGUI(SceneView sceneview) {
3.         if (Event.current.type == EventType.mouseDown) {
4.        
5.             if (Camera.current != null) {
6.                 Ray ray = Camera.current.ScreenPointToRay(Input.mousePosition);
7.                
8.                 RaycastHit hit = new RaycastHit();
9.                 Debug.DrawLine(ray.origin, ray.origin + ray.direction * 1000);
10.                
11.                 if (Physics.Raycast(ray, out hit)) {
12.                     Debug.Log("hit");
13.                 } else {
14.                     Debug.Log("miss");
15.                 }
16.             } else {
17.                 Debug.Log("camera is null");
18.             }
19.         }
20.     }
21.  

I always end up getting a miss. I checked and Camera.current is in fact the camera of the editor. I've tried every permutation of the Raycast() function and none seem to work for me. Does anyone have any idea what I might be doing wrong?

Thanks!

I just realized I was getting Input.mousePosition, I changed that to Event.current.mousePosition and it seems to be getting the correct calculations now. It still says I missed it, but the debug line seems to be going through it now.

 

I fixed it, my object did not have a collider and hence it wasn't detecting anything. Ignore this thread!

 

What type of class are you using this code in?

This isn't in an EditorWindow, is it?
