AtomClickTrigger
● This can be triggered by clicking on the Atom like a button.
● Just add this plugin to the Atom.
● Define Triggers based on mouse Hover-in/out, click. In particular, it provides a toggle function to turn it on/off.
● CUA is now also supported (v0.2)
● VR Controller is now supported (v0.3)
● VR Head Hover/Click is now supported (v0.4) - If the VR Head is hovering, you can click with mouse or controller L/R.
● Implements accurate shape selection (v0.5)
● Person's part (hand, foot, breast, eye .... etc) selection is not yet supported. I will implement it in the future. (maybe next next version)
● Person's clothing selection is not yet supported. I will implement it in the future. (maybe next next next version)
● Please refer to the demo below for more details.

● In VaM, there are cases where a shape's scale is set to below approximately 0.3.
● At this scale, the ray range no longer decreses, which causes issues with selecting objects.
● Rather than being a bug in VaM, it might actually be an intentional design choice by the developer to improve detection accuracy for very small objects—specifically those below 0.x in size.
● This issue has been observed with Shape atoms such as Capsule, Cube, Sphere, ISCapsule, ISCone, ISCube, ISCylinder, ISSphere, and ISTube. Other atom types have not yet been tested.
● You can see this behavior in the screenshot below.
● I attempted to development the MeshCollider and related components to achieve accurate raycast range, but ultimately abandoned the approach due to side effects, inconsistent implementations across as each types, and most importantly, unnecessary overhead caused by the additional mesh structures.
● Instead, I used the VamObjectExplorer tool I previously developed to debug how scale changes affect the interaction range.
● The root cause of the issue was that when the scale is changed, only the rescaleObject is modified, while the scale value is not applied to the ShapeCollider and RigidBody components of the mainController.
● Therefore, I implemented the code as shown below and tested whether precise raycasting is possible for nine types of shapes: Capsule, Cube, Sphere, ISCapsule, ISCone, ISCube, ISCylinder, ISSphere, and ISTube.
● As shown below, precise selection is possible even at a scale as small as 0.001.
● To uncover this, I used VamObjectExplorer, a plugin I proudly developed myself. I was so thrilled with it, I celebrated for two whole days!

● I conducted tests on a total of nine shape types, categorized as follows: Capsule, Cube, Sphere, ISCapsule, ISCone, ISCube, ISCylinder, ISSphere, and ISTube.
● At long last, We can finally operate the spaceship dashboard with precision!!!

1. Trigger to SliderFloatValue
Atom-to-Atom interaction is always expensive.
For example, if you install ClickTrigger on one atom and successively call SliderFloatValue on another atom, a bottleneck will occur.
I discovered this problem in the process of installing and calling a separate Atom on the knob to open it by applying an animation effect to the Atom that serves as the gate.
However, I have confirmed that when both ClickTrigger and SliderFloatValue exist in one atom, no bottleneck problem occurs even when called.
Perhaps, if you install ClickTrigger on Atom in the future, you may need to add an area click function rather than an entire click function.
2. Ray Detection
When adjusting the scale of a Shape (Sphere) (for example, setting the scale to 0.2), the actual detectable range is much wider than the actual size.
Assumed, when the scale is reduced, the size of the collider does not appear to be reduced below a certain size.
3. Issues with using multiple AtomClickTriggers
Raycasting is quite expensive in terms of performance.
If you attach an AtomClickTrigger to 100 atoms, the system has to process 100 separate raycasts.
To optimize this, a more efficient approach would be to place a single AtomClickTrigger on an Empty Atom and use more than 10 Tabs, each configured to target a specific receiver Atom.
This way, only one raycast needs to be processed.
