    Hi! I recently got working the ability to pick up objects. When i pick them up, how can i make it so it goes to a specific spot on the controller?

    For Example:

    Say you are going to pick up a baseball bat. When you pick it up, i would want the bat to go in your hand, so your holding the bottom of the bat. I dont want to be able to pick the bat up from all angles.

    I think it automatically goes to the anchor point on that model. This is defined in the modelling software.

    one solution would be to manually get the desired position and rotation of the object when it is in your hand and in the moment you pick it up, after parenting it to the hand model, assign its local position and rotation to the values you determined manually
