- adds custom selection and component caching behaviour
- must be present on the same transform as the SelectableUI components it controls
SelectableUIELement send messages to the MenuInput when a mouse is over them
SelectableUIELement send messages to the MenuInput when a mouse is over them or selection has been moved onto them
- they have events for on selection
- does not handle submit events (must use CC_Button if you'd like submit behaviour)
##TODO
- mouse click activates the currently selected UI element (even if the mouse is not over it)
CC_Button (chop chop button) implements the same methods as SelectableUIElement, however it also inherits from UnityEngine.UI.Button implements an OnSubmitMethod which queries whether it should call base.OnSubmit() or stop the interaction early. Used for our custom menu input handling to prevent an edgecase where mouse clicks can call submit on the wrong UI element.
Scenario goes as follows:
- mouse is over button one
- keyboard moves selection to button two
- user hits left mouse button without moving the mouse
- - without custom handling, system would submit on button two, which is not good. custom handling stops the submit action before it hits the button's onClick list.
