Hands

• Primary Hand is the hand component of the hand this is attached to
• Secondary Hand is the hand component of the other hand this is attached to (if primary hand is right, this would be the left hand)

• Forward Pointer is a transform that represents the start point and forward direction of the pointer line
• Line is the line renderer that will manage the visual properties of of the grab pointer line
• Max Range will be the max distance in units that distance grabbing is possible
• Layers represent the physics layers possible for distance grabbing, (for ease of use purposes) if set to nothing will default to “Grabbable” unless removed from the start function
• Default Targeted Material will be used on only targeted distance grabbable if its distance grabbable targeted material is empty (Targeting is when the pointer is pointing at an object but not selecting)
• Default Selected Material will be used on only selected distance grabbable if its distance grabbable targeted material is empty (Selecting is when the pointer is grabbing an object before the pull)
