DragDetectors [Beta]

Studio made all possible updates. The suggestion of the Name argument is still visible, and it still requires 3 arguments (as mentioned) as of now.

There is a bug i have noticed with the dragdetector which makes the dragdetector still think you’re holding it after you’ve picked up a tool

how to replicate:

  1. Get a tool with a touch interest in it
  2. Hold a drag detector instance
  3. Pick up the tool
  4. It’s broken

I think just be a little patient. We’ve had some version rollbacks and some strangeness on iOs touch devices but when the versions all settle it should be stable and all using the new API.

Sorry if it’s not a smooth transition.

“Can drag detectors maybe added for GUIs so you have not script it (it’s useful.so I can add it to my plugin)”?
I’m not sure what you mean here. Are you talking about 2D screen guis? We’ve gotten several requests for this, as well as DragDetectors within Viewports. We may do that after our first release of DragDetectors.

“drag detectors enabled for all experience in december?”

Actually… we hope to enable DragDetectors in all games way sooner: in the next couple of weeks.
We will stay in the beta for authoring, but if you put DragDetectors in your games, they will work without filling out any forms.

Stay tuned, we will announce when they go live in all games.

Ooh thanks. There are a lot of cases where a drag is interrupted and we may not have caught them all. We will look into this one.

Hi @foodeggs7

I see your first game in the form. I’ll make sure it’s turned on.
Can you fill out the form for your second game so we can enable that as well?
You can have DragDetectors enabled on as many games as you want.

If you want you can create the game now with no content and fill out the form. We can enable it now for later. Then it will work later when you are ready to build the game.
(although there’s a chance DragDetectors will be enabled in all games by July 28 without needing to fill out theform)

@Mikos_Drafle If you fill out the form here:

then we will turn on DragDetectors in your game(s) for you.

We are approaching the time when we’ll turn it on for all games, while keeping the beta in place for authoring in studio. But we cannot promise a date.

@Firefly_Studio I tried your game, it’s really cool to see jenga turned into a proper game; and it’s fun to play. I like how you set up the different courses and added the crown.
