How can I switch scene by taping the screen in Cocos2d 3

I am making a game in Cocos2d & SpriteBuilder. Is it possible to switch to a new scene by taping on the screen? I know how to do it with a button.

So if someone out there can help me, that would be awesome!:)

Solution

  • Yes, it works the same way as for a button. When you understand how to handle touches the implementation is very easy:

    First turn on user interaction for the node that shall accept touches:

    self.userInteractionEnabled = TRUE;

    Then implement the touchBegan: method:

    - (void)touchBegan:(UITouch *)touch withEvent:(UIEvent *)event
{
    // if you want to only react to touches in certain areas add check here
    [[CCDirector sharedDirector] replaceScene:myScene];
}
