Question

Hi, in my game there is a panel in the corner that has buttons in it, but when I click the button it registers in the world, creating an object, can I stop this?

You're gonna want to take a look at the HitTest method.

You use it like this:

// C#
GUILayer l = Camera.main.GetComponent(typeof(GUILayer)) as GUILayer;
GUIElement ele = l.HitTest(Input.mousePosition);
if(ele != null)
{
     // The mouse is over a GUI element here. 
}
else
{
     // The mouse isn't over any GUI element here.
}

That works for GUIText and GUITexture, but what about buttons and such created with UnityGUI?

It should work for any GUI element.

It works with any GUIElement, but the new UnityGUI system doesn't use those, and doesn't even require a GUILayer to work. You call GUI.Button every frame to create a button, for example.
