We generally don't recommend DW20's button API, as it's rather terrible. We suggest using
Touchpoint instead.

More like
you suggest. :P/>
But yeah, jokes aside, please stop using Direwolf's API, and Lyqyd's touchpoint is probably the best alternative available.

Upholding yours and chucking other people's down…Bully! :P/>
Just because it isn't good doesn't mean he didn't put a lot of effort into it. Everyone is learning. :)/>
I am only just learning how to draw objects myself (boxes,circles,interactables etc) :D/>

Yeah, he did put effort into it and I appreciate his kindness towards our community. That doesn't change the fact that he made a really crappy API, and sugarcoating it just because he's popular doesn't help anybody.
