iOS touches buffer

Hi there,

I'm having a slight problem with iOS touch functionality

When my game starts the user can click anywhere on the screen to launch the game. I use this simple code:

if (Input.touchCount > 0) {

     vars.gameStarted = true;
     
     }

My problem is that if the user tabs the screen a few time it's like the touch function "remembers" the touches and uses these unused touches in the game after it is launched. It feels like it stores the "touches" in a buffer and uses these at the first possible convenience.

Does any of you know if it would be possible to re-write the above script more like this:

if (Input.touchCount > 0) {

     vars.gameStarted = true;
     //EMPTY TOUCH BUFFER//
     }

I couldn't find anything about this in the docs so any help will be much appreciated!

Thanks Jeppe
