Input.simulateMouseWithTouches is ignored in WebGL

I know WebGL is not officially supported on mobile devices, but this will also raise problems on ultra books with touch. Since this already works for other mobile platforms, it's expected to have the same functionality everywhere - at the very least we should be getting a warning when setting this.

My solution was to use Raycasting on touches to send OnMouse events to objects that are expecting them, and change all Input.GetMouse*() calls to my own GetInput*() calls that check touches as well as mouse. But those should not be necessary, specially since multi-platform without too much special casing is supposed to be Unity's big thing.

 

Well... It's one year later and this wasn't still solved.

Any alternative to solve this easly?

 

Someone has submitted this as a bug report recently.

I too would like to see this one fixed.
