Research direction

Start with Engine/Core/Controls/IInputSource.cs and inspect BufferedInputSource and InputControl to understand the existing keyboard, mouse, and gamepad contracts. Then trace how input actions reach UI pointer events and review the Android plan task C5. Done means touch data and bindings are supported, primary touch can emulate mouse input, and fake-source tests verify the UI receives pointer events.

Description

c:engine p:medium size:M t:feature

Current State

IInputSource (Engine/Core/Controls/IInputSource.cs) is keyboard, mouse and gamepad only, and InputControl kinds cover keys, mouse and gamepad.

Tasks

  • Touch API: touches with id, phase, position, delta, pressure in IInputSource/BufferedInputSource
  • InputControl touch kinds and action bindings
  • Primary-touch-to-mouse emulation (setting)
  • Unit tests with a fake source

Acceptance Criteria

  • Tests pass; the UI receives emulated pointer events from touches in tests
