# Hotspots
**Hotspots** are interactive elements that provide a simple interface for common gameplay mechanics that are not part of the core of the game.
For example, a typical hotspot is next to a **Trigger** with the option to change the cursor texture when the mouse hovers the object.
{% hint style="info" %}
A **Hotspot** has different options that can be enabled/disabled individually.
{% endhint %}
## Creating a Hotspot
To create a **Hotspot** component simply **Right Click** on the *Hierarchy Panel* and select `Game Creator → Other → Hotspot`. You can also create a **Hotspot** element adding the component to any Game Object.
## Hotspot options
A **Hotspot** component has different options that can be enabled.
### Cursor option
Whenever the mouse cursor hovers the **Hotspot**'s collider, the cursor texture will switch to the specified. You can also tell Unity the position of the click point inside the texture (in pixel units).
### Proximity Hint option
Sometimes you want to hint the user (with a glow for example) there's an important object when the player is nearby.
An instance of the **Prefab** game object will be created once and **enabled**/**disabled** whenever the player enters or exits the area specified by the radius.
### Head Look At option
If you have a *humanoid* character as a player you can make him **look at** the **Hotspot**. This is a subtle effect but a great way to indicate important objects without the need of using UI elements.
