I’m curious, as it could save me a whole ton of hassle, and fix a lot touch screen control issues in my game. Is there anyway to implement a Directional Pad, preferably with 8 Way movement, instead of the Thumbstick for touch screen based games? I’d like to be able to move around by just pressing on a D-pad the screen, instead of having to drag your finger across the thumbstick. I feel the thumbstick is very fidgety and not as precise for what I need in my game.
Plus it’s really easy to move your finger slightly too far off the stick or into the left side of the screen, constantly interrupting movement. The game Pocket Morty’s that recently came out has a great example of what I’d like, but it only has 4 directional movement. Regardless if anyone has any ideas as to how something like this could be implemented, I’d be greatly appreciative. Please and thank you.
Anybody know if this is possible? Or something at least close?
There should be touch settings in Project Settings, there you can customize touch controls. If there no way to create 8 directional dpad, the you need to create your own in UMG i guess
