[Request/Concern] Touch Operation with animated functions
I already feel weird by opening the 3rd topic consecutively, and as noted, I'm very passionate about the animated file because there are endless possibilities with it in terms of functionality within the routes and trains. Touch operation is xml-based, but I never got to try it because the documentation was never finished (i assume), but what I am afraid of is that it might be designed for the train's controls and stuff as I saw a video of it being used in braking and power, Or if there is general functionality in it, I'm also afraid that it is very limited due to XML not being the main file type for formulating functionality, I have no idea if there's anything that relates touch operation with animated functions in XML, but my original thinking is for touch operation to be fitted in a variable directly into the animated file, or another workaround that references animated functionality to be fitted in an XML touch object for general usage. How would a variable fit with touch return values? Ex: -1 = No touch engaged, 0 = Cursor is hovering in the object, 1 = Touch Engaged. How would you have the ability to choose which cursor to use when the cursor is inbound toward the touch-fitted object? How about a new line under the object section? Ex: Cursor = image.png.
An extra thought I have is another new line: TouchFunction =, Opens even more doors for an even wider range of things to tackle (I'm speaking of my mind rn but I don't even know if fitting touch directly to the animated file and into a variable is possible). Btw I Thank you Mr.Lees for your consideration on my last 2 topics!
