I have a problem with a collider button: when I use the button on PC it works fine, but when I use it on mobile device the script is not working (but the collider should make a fade effect).

Video showing desired effect.

This is the script I have: 

#pragma strict

function OnMouseDown(){
    GameObject.FindWithTag("MainCamera").GetComponent(orbit).mainMenu = false;  
    for (var child : Transform in GameObject.Find("logo").transform) {
        child.gameObject.active = false;    
    }
    var enemy:GameObject[] = GameObject.FindGameObjectsWithTag("enemy");
    for (var child3 : GameObject in enemy) {
        Destroy(child3);
    }

    for (var child : Transform in GameObject.Find("menu_main").transform) {
        child.gameObject.active = false;    
    }   

    var num:GameObject[] = GameObject.FindGameObjectsWithTag("num");
    for (var child2 : GameObject in num) {
        Destroy(child2);
    }

    for (var child : Transform in GameObject.Find("menu_end").transform) {
        child.gameObject.active = false;    
    }   

    for (var child : Transform in GameObject.Find("healthbar").transform) {
        child.gameObject.active = true; 
    }   
    GameObject.Find("_Game").GetComponent(game).score = 0;  
}

So your issue boils down to something very simple. While touch events are similar to mouse events and in a lot of ways they are handled the same, but this is one of those cases where they're not.

Simply put, OnMouseDown doesn't work on mobile.

The answer there has an outdated link (and contains a typo), here's where it should point:

http://wiki.unity3d.com/index.php/OnMouseDown

And the relevant code (in JS / UnityScript, which you are using, although I do advise switching to C#, it's relatively painless):

function Update () {
    // Code for OnMouseDown in the iPhone. Unquote to test.
    var hit : RaycastHit;
    for (var i = 0; i < Input.touchCount; ++i) {
        if (Input.GetTouch(i).phase == TouchPhase.Began) {
        // Construct a ray from the current touch coordinates
        var ray = camera.ScreenPointToRay (Input.GetTouch(i).position);
        if (Physics.Raycast (ray,hit)) {
            hit.transform.gameObject.SendMessage("OnMouseDown");
          }
       }
   }
}

Just attach a new script with this function in it to the main camera and you're good to go. Your existing OnMouseDown script will start working again.

  • Switching from JS to C# is easy: you're already using `#Pragma strict` so all you'd have to do is change `var xxx : Type` to `Type xxx` and your for-loops to use `in` instead of a `:` – Draco18s no longer trusts SE May 25 '17 at 15:53
  • thank you for script an explanation , ur a life saver :* – Andre Matiun May 25 '17 at 17:53

  • OP's rep is not much to up-vote but can [accept](https://meta.stackexchange.com/a/5235) answer and should if problem is solved. Note that there are few places where `Physics.Raycast` should be used these days to detect clicks on objects otherwise OP will run into problems of clicks going through UI and clicking on GameObjects. The new [`EventSystem`](https://stackoverflow.com/a/41392130/3785314) should be used for Unity 4.5 and above. – Programmer May 25 '17 at 19:39
