OrbitalCam

Drag-and-drop RTS & city builder camera.

Pan around your 3D scene, and orbit around the camera target just like you are used to from your favourite City-Building / Management / Tycoon / RTS games.

Quick Start

After installing the package from the Asset Store, find the prefabs in:

Assets/Goehler Studios/OrbitalCam/Prefabs/

Pick the prefab that matches your project's input backend:

• OrbitalCam_LegacyInputManager.prefab - for projects on the Legacy Input Manager.
• OrbitalCam_NewInputSystem.prefab - for projects on the New Input System Package.

Note: the New Input System prefab needs the Input System package (com.unity.inputsystem) installed. Without it, the prefab shows a "missing script" warning until you install the package.

Drag the prefab into your scene and you're ready to go. If you already have a Camera in your scene, you might want to delete it, or at least remove the MainCamera tag and disable the AudioListener on it to avoid any warnings.
