Questions & Answers

Hey I wanna make a mobile game where on the start menu touching anywhere will start the game, but i also want a few buttons to press on the same screen, how do I make it so if you touch a button it doesn’t recognize the normal click as well

I am just going with my workaround as I couldn’t get anything “legit” to work how I wanted it to

//blank style so screen button doesnt show up
var blankStyle : GUIStyle;

var buttonPressed = false;

function OnGUI () {

    if (GUI.Button(Rect(0,0, 500, 500),"Test Button"))
    {
       buttonPressed = true;
    }

    //button is screen size and has a blank gui style
    //this \/ must be at the bottom so the other buttons can disable its use
    if (GUI.Button(Rect(0,0, Screen.width, Screen.height), "", blankStyle))
    {
       if(!buttonPressed)
       {
         //do stuff for touching screen
       }else
       {
         buttonPressed = false;
       }
    }

}

The simplest way I can think of is to put all the button code in if / else if block.

if (Input.touchCount > 0) //firstly, check if a touch has been made
{
 if (GUI.Button(...)) //code for options button
 {
  // statement
 }
 else if (GUI.Button(...)) //code for stats button
 {
  // statement
 }
 else if (GUI.Button(...)) //code for quit button
 {
  // statement
 }
 else //this block will execute if none of the above is true
 {
  //statement for starting the game
 }
}

Didn’t check the code, but should be something similar. Hope this helps.
