Main question: How can I make this possible so that I can press a UI button inside the canvas while the cursor is locked?
Hello, I am creating a 3D video game. I have fully functional character control like walking using WASD keys and view rotation using mouse.
Now the last thing I need is to have cursor in the middle that can click on UI buttons on canvas like this:

I cannot click on UI buttons while the cursor is on locked constantly. So I created the pulse where the cursor will be locked and unlocked with a pulse so I can click on buttons.
This is the code I'm using:
//Inside the Update function.
float Lock = 0.0375f;
timer += Time.deltaTime;
if (timer > 0.02f && timer <= Lock)
{
Cursor.lockState = CursorLockMode.Locked;
}
else if(timer > Lock)
{
Cursor.lockState = CursorLockMode.None;
if(timer >= Lock + 0.1f)
timer = 0;
}
Cursor.visible = true;
It works, but not 100% proficient.
So, when I start building and run the game, here is what is happening:

What's happening is I cannot click the UI button after building and running the game. The only time I can press the button is when I am moving side by side while hovering over the button, otherwise if I stand still, I cant click the button.
This is the same crud I've been getting when I am designing one thing like a button for example, but when running, the button looks completely different from the designer. Same it applies here, I am running inside the Unity editor works, but when running inside the built game doesn't work like how it's suppose to.
For that, I just need help in what in the world I must do to make it work on both unity editor and built game, maybe I'm doing something wrong with the code? I need help. Any questions, please ask. Thank you.
