probuilder-set-pivot Move the pivot (origin) of a `ProBuilderMesh` without shifting the visible geometry. Choose `Center` (mesh bounds), `FirstVertex`, or `Custom` (world-space position). The mesh data is rebaked so the visual position stays fixed.

Set the pivot point of a ProBuilder mesh

Move the pivot (origin) of a ProBuilderMesh without shifting the visible geometry. The mesh data is rebaked so the visual position stays fixed while the GameObject's transform origin moves to the new pivot.

Inputs

  • gameObjectRef — the GameObject hosting the ProBuilderMesh component.
  • pivotLocation — MeshPivotLocation enum: Center (mesh bounds center), FirstVertex, or Custom.
  • customPosition — required when pivotLocation = Custom. World-space pivot position.

Examples

  • Center the pivot: pivotLocation=Center.
  • Set pivot to first vertex: pivotLocation=FirstVertex.
  • Set custom pivot: pivotLocation=Custom, customPosition=(0, 0, 0).

Behavior

The mesh is rebuilt (ToMesh → Refresh), dirty-flagged, and the Editor repaints. The whole call runs on the Unity main thread.

How to Call

unity-mcp-cli run-tool probuilder-set-pivot --input '{
  "gameObjectRef": "string_value",
  "pivotLocation": "string_value",
  "customPosition": "string_value"
}'

For complex input (multi-line strings, code), save the JSON to a file and use:

unity-mcp-cli run-tool probuilder-set-pivot --input-file args.json

Or pipe via stdin (recommended):

unity-mcp-cli run-tool probuilder-set-pivot --input-file - <<'EOF'
{"param": "value"}
EOF

Troubleshooting

If unity-mcp-cli is not found, either install it globally (npm install -g unity-mcp-cli) or use npx unity-mcp-cli instead. Read the /unity-initial-setup skill for detailed installation instructions.

Input

Name Type Required Description
gameObjectRef any Yes Reference to the GameObject with a ProBuilderMesh component.
pivotLocation string No Where to place the pivot.
customPosition any No Custom world position for pivot (only used when pivotLocation=Custom).
