If I present a target on the screen for player to tap, what's the most efficient way to know if they've tapped the screen but missed the target?
By efficiency I mean absolute lightest on processor etc.
There are three "targets" on the screen. The desired target, a pause button and a menu button. However any taps anywhere else I want to know about and then generate an error message to the player. But the game is designed to be light and fast. So I don't want to use a bunch of objects around the targets to be this checking facility. Unless that's the only way...
