Learn how to send real-time updates and control animations with our Unity SDK

Real-time Updates and Animations

You can go back to the console to add more 3D models, delete 3D models, add metadata, or change existing metadata associated with your entry and instantly see the changes in Unity even while the Unity project is running.

For example, lets add metadata with the key direction and the value right.

This will make the 3D model rotated to the right.

Build-in Keywords

The following keys are words the system uses as pre-defined metadata keys to control real-time transformations:

Built-in keywords will be suggested through a drop-down list in the console but you can add any key and any value.

Keyword

Type

Options

x

float

Any positive or negative number
