    Hi together,

    I am building an app with first person controls.
    For mobile I followed the advice in the faq:
    https://www.soft8soft.com/docs/manual/en/introduction/FAQ.html#first_person_mobile

    I build two html buttons with pointerdown events that move the camera 1 unit forward or backward on click.

    But what I want is a constant movement if I hold the button pressed down on mobile devices.

    How can I get this managed?

    Thanks a lot.
    Best regards,
    Stefan

    Hi Stefan,

    To implement continuous movement, you can use variables.
    When the button is pressed, you set a variable for it, e.g. to true. Once the button is released, you set it back to initial value, e.g. false.

    So further in your puzzles you can check every frame if the corresponding variable is set to true.
    If it is, you change the camera position as in that example – otherwise don’t move it.

    Hope this helps.
