Hi,  
the Input Touch Event does not Trigger in the BP. I have “Use mouse for touch” checked in the Input Options. When i hit Play, i can move the virtual thumbsticks with my mouse but the Input Touch Event does nothing.  
I looked at the TappyChicken Example and the Input touch Event is working there, so is there an Option i’m missing ?

And yes, i have a custom Player Controller (exactly like in tappy chicken) that has all mouse Interface Options enabled.

Yeah i found the problem, don’t forget to set the “auto receive Input” Option to “Player 0” when you select the blueprint in the scene outliner.

Also You can try enable “Use mouse for touch” (ProjectSettings-\>Input-\>MouseProperties)
