[SOLVED] »Click« works in some browsers and does not in others

Help & Support
1

Hi,

I’ve build a scene with mouse, touch and VR input support. I don’t use UI elements but aabb raycasting on entities with a renderer component for both VR and mouse/touch input. The hover states work in all browsers as expected, only »click« does not work in some browsers. »click« for mouse/touch is implemented with mouseup/touchend. I had tested with Chrome on macOS and the Quest 3 with the Meta browser during development and »click« input worked without issues. Then I tested the scene in different browsers on different OSs and discovered, that the »click« input does not work in several browsers on different OSs.

Windows 10:
Chrome - yes
Edge - yes
Firefox - no

macOS:
Chrome - yes
Safari - no
Firefox - no

iOS:
Safari iOS 15.7.11 - yes
Safari iOS 18.5 - no

Quest 3:
Meta browser - yes

The iOS version differences and research results put the assumption close that newer browsers restrict click recognition. Does anybody have a proposal how to activate click recognition for newer browsers in PlayCanvas? Any solution proposal would easily save me from several hours of debugging and researches.

Thanks for your advice.

I had a bug in the logic which I fixed to get the »click« working.
