I have a system that requiers the object a player clicked on, I know how to do this both on mobile and on pc, however I need one way that works for both. I have searched on the forums, found some things but nothing seems to be just the right thing.
To do it on mobile I’d use:
UIS.TouchTapInWorld:Connect(function(vector2Pos,ProcessedByUI)
if not ProcessedByUI then
if mouse.Target then
local targetObject = mouse.Target
end
end
end)
And for pc simply:
mouse.Button1Down:Connect(function()
local targetObject = mouse.Target
end)
The problem with using the pc method on mobile aswell, is that it gets the previously touched position and not the new one… if I want a thing to happen on a specific clicked object, I’d have to click it twice basically.
And the problem with using the mobile method on pc is that it simply doesn’t work since TouchTapInWorld isn’t a thing on pc.
How would I simply get the actual clicked part, using a method that works for all users.
local inCooldown = false
function setTargetObj()
if inCooldown then return end
inCooldown = true
local targetObject = mouse.Target
-- do stuff
wait(.1)
inCooldown = false
end
UIS.TouchTapInWorld:Connect(function(vector2Pos,ProcessedByUI)
if not ProcessedByUI then
if mouse.Target then
--local targetObject = mouse.Target
setTargetObj()
end
end
end)
mouse.Button1Down:Connect(function()
--local targetObject = mouse.Target
setTargetObj()
end)
untested code
there might be a more optimal solution out there
on the other hand, some laptops have touch screen, so doing this anyway might be a good idea
I appreciate your answer, but I ended up finding another way to solve my issue!
Basically all I had to do is:
local function onInputBegan(input, gameProcessed)
if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1 or input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.Touch then
if not gameProcessed then
if mouse.Target then
local targetObject = mouse.Target
end
end
end
end)
UIS.InputBegan:Connect(onInputBegan)
The fact that I didn’t think about this is kind of dumb but it is what it is
