In this Unity tutorial I teach you how to make 3D objects clickable, draggable and droppable. This approach works with both the old Unity Input Manager and the new Input System.

You can download this package from GitHub and import it directly into your project:
github.com/Midnite-Oil-Software-L-L-C/drag_and_drop.git

The models I used in this tutorial are free on the Unity Asset store:
assetstore.unity.com/packages/3d/props/pbr-little-games-pack-4k-237164?aid=1100lzsEu

The Object Pool Manager I use in the tutorial is also free on the Unity Asset store:
assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/utilities/object-pool-manager-227215?aid=1100lzsEu

You can grab the entire tutorial project from my GitLab repository (you will need to install several packages to build it):
gitlab.com/midnite-oil-software-tutorials/drag-and-drop-tutorial

Be sure to wish list my upcoming Highland Panic game on Steam:
store.steampowered.com/app/2391990/Highland_Panic/?beta=0

You can also join the beta program for the iPhone version:

Or join Open Testing on Google Play to try the Android version:
play.google.com/apps/testing/com.midniteoilsoftware.highlandpanic
