☑ Request touch code be added to entity picking tutorial

Suggestions & Feedback

Hello PlayCanvas,

I appreciate the recently updated entity picking tutorial code. Would it be possible to have this updated again to include touch-based controls? Currently it only responds to mouse clicking. This is the tutorial I’m referring to:

Thanks for your consideration with this. It would be a huge help to me.

Thanks Steven. Unfortunately, it’s not working on the iPad. I just played the updated tutorial on my iPad-Mini (with most recent iOS) and it does not respond to touch. I did try some of the other PlayCanvas touch tutorials and they did work, just not the one for entity picking. Any suggestions?

Thanks again,
Curtis

Should be fixed now. It was a code mistake on my part and I only tested on Android forgetting that the first touch on Android also fires a mouse down event as well so it ‘worked’ during testing.

Thanks Steven. It works great. This is a huge help and I’m very grateful for the update.
