Direct Tag Haptic Source component as seen in the Scene Inspector

The DirectTagHapticsSource component allows driving haptic sensations for a given haptic point directly, rather than using the haptic volume system.

This works as part of the game's robust Haptics system.

Usage

• works only with tagged haptic points. This component must have a matching Tag to a configured haptic device and must be present under the user to work
• It doesn't prevent the haptic volumes from sending haptics - the effects are additive. If you want only this component to control the haptics, do not setup a corresponding tagged haptic point

Examples

• This can be useful to drive haptics using arbitrary mechanisms (e.g. driving with ProtoFlux), such as grabbing ear/tail dynamic bones, syncing them to world audio reactivity and so on
