[Feature request] Add command history navigation buttons for mobile devices

Open abcjjy opened this issue 4 years ago • 7 comments

Command history is a nice feature. However, it is restricted to navigate with arrow keys, which is quite inconvenient on a mobile device. I've tried external keyboard connected to iPhone and it doesn't work either.

Adding two nagivation buttons will solve this issue. Moreover, a commad history list will be even better.

Do you have any recommendations on where to put these buttons or the dropdown?

It will be nicer to persist command history across sessions. Saving it in PlayerPrefs will be fine.

I am not planning to save history to PlayerPrefs at the moment but thank you for the suggestion.

The thing with browsing command history like this on mobile devices is, after selecting the correct command history with those arrows, user will need to click the command input field and hit the Enter button. So the process is still not very user friendly.

Selecting a command from dropdown will automatically execute it, I presume?
