OnMouseExit and OnMouseDown Question

I have attached a script to a gameobject with OnMouseOver and OnMouseExit functions. The OnMouseOver fires.

However, about 1 or 2 seconds later the OnMouseExit function fires even though I have not moved the mouse.

I have no gamepads or joysticks that might interfere currently hooked up.

Is this working correctly? Would this interfere with the OnMouseDown function not to fire?

EDIT: I've been playing with this some more. It seems after a few milliseconds, the mouse is no longer registered as being over the object. Everything works as expected when the scene first fires up. A few seconds later and OnMouseOver goes screwy.

 

Can you post the code you are using here ?

 

Yep. It'll have to wait until I get home from work though.

 

It seems I am having problems with Input.GetMouseButtonDown or Up as well. They are acting "slugishly" for lack of a better term. Everything works fine the first few seconds of the scene and then it is hit or miss if the mouse down or up is registered.

If I use just GetMouseButton, everything works although I'll get half a dozen registrations of the event in an Update function (which I expected).

I was using the Inputs using Raycast with the following code:

Code (csharp):

1.  
2.  if (Input.GetMouseButtonUp(1)) {
3.      ray = Camera.main.ScreenPointToRay(Input.mousePosition);
4.        
5.        
6.         if (Physics.Raycast(ray, hit))
7.         {
8.             if (hit.collider != null)
9.             {
10.                 if(hit.collider.gameObject.GetComponent(enemyInfo) != null)
11.                 {
12.                                         print("hit");
13.                                 }
14.             }
15.                     }
16.         else
17.         {
18.             print("Hit nothing");
19.         }
20.     }
21.  

I'm not sure if it is my machine or if I am using the function incorrectly. Any thoughts? Please note: I have ray and hit declared at the beginning of the script.

 

Have you definitely got a collider on the object the raycast is supposed to detect?

 

Yep.

I played around some more with this last night. I used the Input.GetMouseButton(0) and got a hit with no problems.

Using the same function with a boolean to hold true when held and false when not, that is when I noticed the intermittent hits. I assume the mousebuttonup/down work the same way.

Does this event fire every frame while the button is held?

I did notice some older threads on the forum with similar problems that were never resolved (at least on the forums).

GetMouseButton is fired as long as you hold down the mouse button every frame. GetMouseButtonUp/Down is only fired once when you press down or release the mouse button.
