Multi touch not working - What's wrong with this code?

Questions & Answers
1

Hi there,

I’m trying to get the Android/iOS controls up and running for my racing game, now that the desktop version is complete… I’m having issues with the multi-touch. For some reason, when I try steering, it stops accelerating until I release the steering button again. Probably something simple, I’m new to this touch stuff… any ideas?

EDIT: New code - multi-touch working but buggy - bools stay activated etc, so car tends to all of a sudden veer off the road or stop accelerating.

function OnGUI()
{
	for (var i = 0; i < Input.touchCount; ++i) 
	{
		if (Input.GetTouch(i).phase != TouchPhase.Ended && Input.GetTouch(i).phase != TouchPhase.Canceled)
		{
    		if (GasButton.HitTest(Input.GetTouch(i).position))
    		{
    			bGasButtonPressed = true;
    		}
    		
    		if (TurnLeft.HitTest(Input.GetTouch(i).position))
    		{
    			bLeftButtonPressed = true;
    		}
    		
    		if (TurnRight.HitTest(Input.GetTouch(i).position))
    		{
    			bRightButtonPressed = true;
    		}
		}
		else
		{
			bGasButtonPressed = false;
			bLeftButtonPressed = false; 
			bRightButtonPressed = false;
		}
	}
}

Hello! Your general programming mistake here is ----->

You have to do this part FIRST …

 bGasButtonPressed = false;
 bLeftButtonPressed = false; 
 bRightButtonPressed = false;

and ONLY THEN do this part,

for (var i = 0; i < Input.touchCount; ++i) … and onwards

try it !

Secondly, be sure to answer the Q. i pose in the comment. Hope it helps so far.
