Touch Input is Broken

Apr 21, 2015 Tokko Bashalis link
Recent update made some huge changes to touch input, and not in a good way. First off is the keyboard: highlights on the keyboard now stay for long periods and remain persistent through opening and closing. The M1-8 short keys are constantly erasing from short presses and misclicks.

Here's an image to outline the problem: http://imgur.com/y73twqy

Addittionally, touch input on normal buttons on the HUD are way less sensitive. know have to click a sector twice to navigate it to it. Most clicks that used to register on the first press now take two. This is infuriating. Please put touch back to where it was, it wasn't broken to begin with.

We'll look into it right away.

I am unable to replicate your problem. What Android device do you have?
And is your touch screen perhaps not working properly in any other games or apps?
Are you using any plugins? If so, disable all of them and try again.

i have a note 3 and i have all these problems. ive noticed though that instead of double clicking i can get it with a long single click but still. the keyboard on mobile was one of my pet peeves already. now its pointless to set the M-shortcuts cause if you type too fast you can set them to whatever bullshit you are typing.
also, this is the only time i have problems with my touchscreen

I am also using a note 3. I have never had an issue until the second I downloaded the new update.

Are any of you not using plugins or are all of you using any? If so, disable them and see if that fixes your keyboard issue.

I think I do know what's going on with the double-touch when opening the UI from a button on the HUD, so I can at least try to fix that. But having the keyboard do that funky thing in the screenshot is something I've not been able to duplicate yet.

Also, does the keyboard have that issue when it is opened from the PDA or Station UI? Or only when it is opened from the HUD?

Ok, I can replicate the keyboard issue as well now. I believe it's a result of a plugin opening the keyboard from the HUD using a button that can long-press. I'd need to know what plugin you're using and where to get it (what version of the plugin you're using).

I made a fix that will hopefully work for you. It will be in the next update due out at the end of this week.

Sorry ray, was at work until now. I use targetless, targetlist, custom HUD, droid buttons, and maid. I haven't updated any of them since the last update. Thanks so much for working on this so fast. This keyboard stuff is literally my only "complaint" if you can call it that. Figure out a way for me to use Fleksy with VO and I will be so unbelievably happy and appreciative.

Thanks. We released a patch yesterday that should fix the problem.

It's fixed. You rock!
