Interaction Tracing for Top Down?

Hi I’m about to make myself sound stupid. I’m trying to steal my inventory system from a first person game and put it into a top down game. I know there’s probably a lot I’ll need to change. My question is, do I need Interaction Tracing? I get why I needed it in first person, but the top down is a mobile point and click style game so do I need the tracing or is it just auto with a click of the mouse?

You only need to do Linetracing in this case if you want to make sure you are pointed towards it, within range or whatever the case may be. But if it is a mouseover or tap style I do not see the need for a LineTrace.

Thank you so much, that’s kind of what I figured but I didn’t want to get too deep if I was making a mistake.

No Problem, In my opinion it’s always better to ask than to spend hours developing something then realize it wasn’t needed.

Although building something out even if it is not used is still a knowledge gain :brain:
