# New Interaction System

## Introduction to JU Interaction System

With the new interaction system, it is possible to dynamically interact with the scenario and create interactive props like buttons and light switches.

To see how to use the system as in the GIF below, see the Interaction System demo scene and read the next topics.

## JU General Interactable

This script is used to create various interactive objects, allowing you to easily call functions via Unity Events.

{% hint style="info" %}
&#x20;The gameobject with this script must have an "Interactable" tag and a Collider with "IsTrigger" enabled.
{% endhint %}

## JU Vehicle Interactable

This script works for the character to be able to enter a vehicle, this script must be attached to a trigger that is a child of a vehicle gameobject and with the "Interactable" tag.

## JU Vehicle Interactable

This script is actually a base class for all interactables; if you attach it to a game object alone, nothing will happen.
\
This base class has virtual functions that can be overridden to create logic for a unique interactable.
