Multi Touch question

So i need to be able to touch two buttons at once in my game, i looked at the multi touch sample code and it looks like all you need to do is add:

system.activate("multitouch")  

to your code? is this really all it takes? when i add this to my code and try to run my game the simulator crashes… [import]uid: 19620 topic_id: 7749 reply_id: 307749[/import]

Yep. [import]uid: 12455 topic_id: 7749 reply_id: 27473[/import]

Any ideas why it may be crashing? [import]uid: 19620 topic_id: 7749 reply_id: 27477[/import]

hmm… do you have any code to show? I will try to help. [import]uid: 12455 topic_id: 7749 reply_id: 27913[/import]

Hmm you know what, i just added it again to a different level of my game and now its working… i must have some small thing that is making the difference, if i find it i will post it here. thank you for your offer to help anyways =D [import]uid: 19620 topic_id: 7749 reply_id: 27922[/import]

Is there a way to test multi touch in the simulator (Windors or Mac) yet?

If not, how do you guys develop your apps using multi touch gestures? For my understanding, it’s next to impossible to create a game using multi touch movement controls without being able to test it on the simulator :frowning:

the simulator doesn’t support multi-touch. It’s actually not that difficult to test multi-touch on devices. [import]uid: 12455 topic_id: 7749 reply_id: 36033[/import]

So what’s the trick? I think it is next to impossible to develope a game using a multi touch control, like a shooter featuring two “analog sticks” for movement, for example. Each time you change the code a little bit you’d have to built the entire game and test it on the device. That’s absolutely annoying o.O
