Trying to make touchscreen controls for a asteroids-type game, need help.

Welcome to our brand new Clickteam Community Hub! We hope you will enjoy using the new features, which we will be further expanding in the coming months.

A few features including Passport are unavailable initially whilst we monitor stability of the new platform, we hope to bring these online very soon. Small issues will crop up following the import from our old system, including some message formatting, translation accuracy and other things.

Thank you for your patience whilst we've worked on this and we look forward to more exciting community developments soon!

    Hi Clickteam!

    I'm trying to edit an MFA I made, which has similar gameplay mechanics to asteroids, so that I can make it a playable APK. I'm having a little difficulty on how the Joystick object is supposed to work, or how to make it visible on my screen. Whenever I try to make the joystick and buttons visible on the frame, it doesn't show up. Also, once I can get the joystick and buttons to appear, how would I make it so the joystick rotates the ship, fire 1 thrusts and fire 2 fires a bullet? I'm trying to find tutorials online, but they all talk about the Joystick 2 object when I'm talking about the Joystick Device in the Android objects. Any help at all will be appreciated.

    I could be misunderstanding, but the Joystick object is for Joysticks.

    Touchscreen controls are no different than mouse-clicks. Just create active objects for your buttons and set your conditions for when the user clicks on those objects.

    No, that's the Joystick 2 object. The Joystick/Device object in the Android objects should be a visible object in the game, it has images and everything. I tried using button objects, but I can't seem to make them transparent so players can see the rest of the frame.
