Hello all, sorry if the answer to this question is obvious, but I'm still new to programming and so I am a bit stuck on this:
Let's say I want the program to execute a function every time the screen is tapped.
function draw()
if CurrentTouch.state == BEGAN then
docode()
end
end
The problem with this however is that since it is in draw(), the function will be called something like 4-5 times before the state changes from "BEGAN".
To solve this problem I usually do something like:
function setup()
stop_docode_repeating = 0
end
function draw()
if CurrentTouch.state == BEGAN and stop_docode_repeating == 0 then
docode()
stop_docode_repeating = stop_docode_repeating + 1
end
end
Although this works, it is quite clumsy and quite slow to do. Is there a better way of doing this?
Thanks!

Use the touched function.
Worked like a charm, thank you very much!
