How do I Shake (Acceleration) device for Trigger

Hello,

I want to be able to shake my device to cause a trigger - for now, a simple Debug.Log will be fine.

I know I can access the acceleration of the device by Touch > Compare Acceleration. Any ideas how I can use this to detect a Device Shake?

Or is there's another plugin that can do this for me?

Thanks.

Hey Oliverj777,

i am searching for the same thing at the moment. What i googled was how this is usually done with a native Android programming.

So in theory what you need is something like:

remember all three axis (alpha,beta,gamma) and record the current time (timestamp).

Then add all axis value together minus the difference from the timestamp + the current time.

This result is like "how far have the axis travelled in time" <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile">

Here is the Android version:

My problem is that i am too dump to convert it to Construct 2 <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy">
