Question by darthbator · Oct 23, 2012 at 05:56 AM · androidiostouchtap

How is "Touch.tapCount" bounded?

I'm having a little trouble understanding the values I am getting out of Touch.tapCount...

How is this function "bounded" the script reference is kinda vague. Lets say I want to detect a "doubt tap" on an object in my environment to trigger a function. So Inside update I have something like this.

 if (Input.touchCount == 1) {
     Touch touch = Input.GetTouch(0);
          if (touch.tapCount == 2 && 
         rayAtTouch(touch.position) && 
         hit.collider.gameObject.layer == (int)Layers.Index.interactionLayer) 
         {
             Debug.Log("GOING OFF!");
         }
 }

The value coming out of touch.tapCount seems all over the place. When is it resetting that value? I get it's representing touches but in exactly what frame of reference? Is there a better way to be check for taps manually?

Cool thanks a lot man! I actually noticed that tap count appears to be bounded by the ScreenSpace point the tap occurred at. The script reference should most likely indicate this. It's not bounded by any measure of time at all. It just resets the varible when the users taps on a different part of the screen.
