Touch help

Ejj

Hi, I was wondering how to make an actor spawn in an iPhone game where the screen is touched. I'm very new to game salad and any help will be appreciated.

Never did it before but I guess if you assign the position x and y of the touch to a game attribute or variable then you spawn the actor on those values x and y...

Hi @Ejj!

make an actor that is as large as the screen ... in its Attributes change Color>Alpha to 0 so it is invisible

put a Rule on that Actor...
when
Touch is pressed
---
Spawn Actor# [in front of is fine]
Direction [0] Relative to: [Scene] --this is the important part!
Position: ->(expression: Device) game.Touches.Touch1.X ^ (expression: Device) game.Touches.Touch1.Y
.....Relative to: [Scene]

that looks more complicated than the couple of clicks it takes to put in! you don't have to type it!
