It would really be helpful (for my current project) if a new property “order” was added to the touch event variable. The order property would be “1” for the 1st object touched, then if the touch event propagated to the next object, it would be “2” for the 2nd object touched, and so forth (regardless of the grouping of the affected objects).
Another thought, I’m also counting the number of touched objects. What I do is I listen to the “began” phase and start counting there. I perform my actions in the “ended” phase which all depend on the number of touched objects counted. Maybe instead of a numbered property as I suggested above, how about an ordered table of references to touched objects.
These are actually doable without an event.order property… but if these were added to the event, it would make things much easier
