Problem Description

New joy and new gestures are awesome but when you start to drawing gesture ofc mainly it works like click and u changing direction. If this approach can be customized without major changes - how about option for this?

But "click for taget" and "click for board/land" tare useful with joy too, dont want to broke them.

Desired Solution

maybe option?

Alternative Approaches

antire disabling interaction but its not good

Additional Context

No response

The problem is that I don't know if the user is just dragging their finger to guide the ship, or if they are attempting to draw a gesture until after they lift their finger back off the screen.

What if I disable click-to-move entirely if the on-screen joystick is in use? all the other stuff (clicking on targets, planets, etc) would still work.

Seems like a very nice solution. Tho not all users use Joystick. I personally don't like using a Joystick.
