Hi! I'm new at GoDot, maybe I'm asking stupid question, but I can't make my object move by touchscreen on phone just simple square and I need it to move by my finger please help

Have you seen this QA post? One of the people there gives example code that moves a cube around, so maybe it will work for you?

If you are wanting to move the square so that it's position is underneath your finger, then this code should work: (I am assuming your project is 2D. Also, I have not tested this code, so it may not work)

func _input(event):
	if (event is InputEventScreenTouch):
		get_node("square").global_position = event.position;
	elif (event is InputEventScreenDrag):
		get_node("square").global_position = event.position;

Hopefully this helps :smile:

yeah, thanks. it works on 3.0 version! ...but I forgot to mention that I using 2.1.5 version. I found tutorial on youtube, guy created a game, but didn't exported on phone, so I want to finish the project and only then succesfully go over to 3.0 :#

yes, I seen Q&A posts and googled it, no results((

my brain hurts, please help

thanks previously!! :)

No problem! All we need to do is convert the code to Godot 2.1.

If my memory of how Godot 2.1 is correct, then the following code should work:

func _input(event):
	if (event.type == SCREEN_TOUCH):
		get_node("square").set_global_pos(event.pos);
	elif (event.type == SCREEN_DRAG):
		get_node("square").set_global_pos(event.pos);

Then it should, hopefully, work with Godot 2.1

Nope, not working(( Emulate touchscreen enabled, did export to phone, also not working.

already tried

func _input(event): if (event.type == InputEvent.SCREEN_TOUCH): get_node(".").set_global_pos(event.pos); elif (event.type == InputEvent.SCREEN_DRAG): get_node(".").set_global_pos(event.pos);

it even don't recognize if (event.type == InputEvent.SCREEN_TOUCH): because I checked by "print("a")", no result

Hmm, I'm not sure. It has been awhile since I've used Godot 2.1, so maybe the code I wrote does not work.

Maybe look at the code in the Multi-touch folder on the Godot demo repository and see how they are processing mobile input?
