Interaction SDK Best Practices

The following are best practices to keep in mind when creating interactions.

In general, you should use a single interactable component and pointable surface when setting up poke interactables or ray interactables. It is possible to add multiple interactable and pointable plane components to a single Actor. If your use case is unique and requires multiple interactables, you should try to avoid the pointable surfaces overlapping as the interactor becomes confused. If they do overlap, a minimum offset of 1.0 unit is usually enough to differentiate one surface from the other when detecting interactions.

The Config Asset for the Poke Interactable is a shared data asset.
