FPS Help.. Pickup and Use "Weapon"

New to Unity, so bear with me.

Does anyone have a link to some good resources (or could help) with this issue? I have a first person camera set up, and I need to walk up to an object, click to pick it up, have the character hold onto it, and then click again to put it in a specific location.

Help is much appreciated!

 

You can check this thread, it has Fps constructor, which has a weapon pickup example, and FPSControl, which also has a more complex example. http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/is-unity-right-for-me.289117/#post-1910067
Also Armedunity has some good Projects/assets that might help.http://armedunity.com/files/category/2-free-projects/
Setting it back down will require a new script, or an edit of the pickup script.

 

Thank you!

 

I am a total idiot when it comes to scripting, but I guess essentially what I want is for an object set to active when a trigger is clicked, and inactive when another trigger is clicked. I can't seem to find any specific tutorials that deal with this, they seem much more complicated.

Any ideas?

 

Try these.

Youtube is a great place to learn Unity!
