visual scripting to scrpt

[rain creek]

Hello. I want touch drag input in my game.
https://youtu.be/HYpP1kJPEZA
So i watched this video's last part. He teaches us what to do but through visual scripting. Can anybody please change this to actual script? Or can give me some other idea to implement touch drag controls

I also watched this:

But it only works in simulator mode. Is there any way it could work in game view?

I think you could do this without a turtorial. You can figure out how the mouse position has changed, and if the x is greater swipe to the right, and if the x is less then swipe to the left. But if you really need a tutorial: https://gamedevacademy.org/mobile-swipe-movement-tutorial/#Swipe_Detection_-_Part_1

(Also this was like the 5th result on google so I think you could’ve found something that worked by your self)

But he is in simulator mode

I just got to know that we can access touch swipe in only simulator mode

[south dome]

do you mean simulating the game on a mobile device?

[rain creek]

But in simulator mode we have to select a particular device

[rain creek]

Yes

[south dome]

So whats the problem with it only working in simulator mode?

[rain creek]

So now my question is that if we build the game with the simulator mode, will it work on all devices

?

[south dome]

it does depend, but it should work on most mobile devices if you build it

[rain creek]

Ok because if we switch the device name in Simulator, the camera ratio changes

And the game does not fit in all

[south dome]

that is the tricky thing with mobile games, you have to support all screen sizes

is it just the UI elements that do not fit?

[rain creek]

Yes so any idea how i can fit all screen sizes?

No the entire game does not fit

[south dome]

could you send some screen shots so I could see exactly how its not fitting?

[rain creek]

If the camera shows -2.5 till 2.5 on the x axis on iphone 11, it will fit between on -1 till 1 on the x axis on iphone 11 pro max

Just an example

[rain creek]

Sorry i am not on my laptop now

[south dome]

thats fine, no rush

[rain creek]

I have closed it bexcause of exams....

[south dome]

Just when you can is fine. It would help to see exactly whats wrong is all

[rain creek]

Ok

But can i switch platform to Android, add the above script (that uses simulator mode), and build the game in the Game mode with the ratio of 16:9 portrait, it shall work on all android devices, right?

Because simulator mode just represents mobile screen

So through above procedure, it will first fit on all screen sizes, and because of the script using touch screens, it will work on mobile

Ithink

I could do that first after my exams and then i can inform you if it works

Thanks @south dome

[south dome]

yes it will, but if something has a different aspect ratio then that there will be black bars on the side.

also anytime, if you need help with the swipe script feel free to ping me (I might not respond). Good luck
