I have a big problem testing my game : when i put 4 fingers on the iPad/iPhone Screen, a new window pops up saying “type a console command”…

I need to remove this Input to test my game when I launch it from the editor on my Ipad.

Hi Pierre,

You can disable the console in the Input config file. Engine/Config/BaseInput.ini has the following:

[/Script/Engine.InputSettings]
bShowConsoleOnFourFingerTap=true

If you add the following to your game input config, GameName/Config/DefaultInput.ini

[/Script/Engine.InputSettings]
bShowConsoleOnFourFingerTap=false

This will override the option and stop the console from appearing.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for you answer,

I didn’t have

[/Script/Engine.InputSettings]
bShowConsoleOnFourFingerTap=true

in Engine/Config/BaseInput.ini.
so, I add it.

Then, I also add

[/Script/Engine.InputSettings]
bShowConsoleOnFourFingerTap=false

in my GameName/Config/DefaultInput.ini.

but it doesn’t work.

Ah, apologies Pierre. It seems that support to disable this was added only last week.

It will make it into the next release. The only way to prevent this in the current release is to use the IOS shipping configuration.

I just tested this in 4.12 and it still launches the console command on iPhone4 OS 7 after setting bShowConsoleOnFourFingerTap=false.

Was it not added to the released back in June 2014?
