double tap to select, for mission editor

[jovial stag]

A quality of life setting that requires you to double tap the object to move it.

• Tap once -> nothing happens
• Double tap -> select object -> objects name, death- spawn event are seen
• Slide (cant be done at the same time with the double tap; need to tap twice, then release your finger and then slide, instead of tapping once and sliding afterwards.) -> Object can finally be moved
• Tap anywhere else -> object gets deselected

I HATE accidentally zooming out in the mission editor, just to realise that i moved like 21 buildings in the process AND reset their height to ground level.

PLEEAASE ADD THIS I BEG YOU

ah interesting, I've actually been thinking about a rework of touch input, these are some good ideas

There are some edge cases with 1 vs 2 fingers when you first press down but otherwise I think this is good

What about, if you can only move an object once it's selected

that way we still have the simple 1 tap to select something (which is intuitive) but if you slide on it straight away it doesn't move

you have to tap it THEN slide it to move

AND what about if sliding never selects anything it alwyas moves the camera and only moves if you have the object selected and you started the move on it?

I also want to allow multiselect
