TouchEventTime ( )

Parameters

None.

Description

Returns the event timestamp in the runtime MilliSecs clock domain, with the same wrap behavior. Returns 0 without a current event. Read after a successful GetTouchEvent; this is the native event time, not the time the game reads it.

iOS and Android provide native touch and acceleration, and web pages on phones and tablets provide touch. Other backends return neutral data. Read the mobile input guide for lifecycle and snapshot rules.
