How Can I Add DeadZone on Bottom of Screen?

I want to add dead zone on bottom of screen. Buttons must be work. Pink area is deadzone and yellow are is touchable zone. My character can shoot everywhere touching to screen. It detect with this codes:

Code (CSharp):

1. return Camera.main.ScreenPointToRay (Input.mousePosition).origin;

I don't want to shoot and detect mouse position if i touch deadzone or buttons.
Please help.

 

Should be able to just have an image overlaying that area with the raycat turned on so it blocks. Can set the transparency to 0 if you want it invisible. Then depending on what your touch zone is using, you can check if you are over the "image" gameobject when you touch and don't process that touch.

 

@Brathnann Wouldn't raycast layers also work for this? Might even be simpler.

 

I forgot to write that my character can shoot everywhere touching to screen. It detect with this codes:

Code (CSharp):

1. return Camera.main.ScreenPointToRay (Input.mousePosition).origin;

I don't want to shoot and detect mouse position if i touch deadzone or buttons.

 

So, when i touch deadzone or buttons, i want it feels like untouch. Only buttons must work.

 

@Lethn mentioned raycast layers, but I've honestly not used them for this purpose.

My particular method was about detecting what your touch was over and then ignoring it if it was on a gameobject that was on the UI layer, thus not shooting.

There are certainly different ways of achieving what you want.
