General / Could Moonlight Streaming for Vita be modified with absolute touch-screen input?
« on: June 18, 2020, 10:40:04 AM »
Hi I registered here to ask a question because this seems to be the place where the most talented Vita developers are.
Now I'm by no means a developer myself and nowadays I mostly use my Vita as a Remote Play device for my PC and PS4. Moonlight works great for that but there would be one thing that would enhance Moonlight a ton, right now the touch-screen of the Vita acts as a trackpad in Moonlight and I wondered, would it be at all possible to have the touch-screen act as an absolute mouse-input area instead? So if I press an area on the touch-screen it will do a left-click on the area where pressed?
I use an Android emulator on my PC to play quite a few mobile games on my Vita via streaming and since the UI's of the games are obviously touch-screen centric having to drag the mouse around via a screen trackpad is less than ideal.
Would that be something that could be done and anybody here would be willing to tackle?
