Get Vector3 from screen touch

[Horror]

It's me again! And I'm befuddled once more

I'm trying to do a raycast from the camera view to a location in the scene relative to where the screen was touched. In my game you touch the screen to shoot, so ideally I'd like to be able to spawn sparks/blood/explosions at the location you shot at.

By the look of it Get Touch Info only allows me to specify 2 axis, and Touch Object Event requires you to specify an object to touch. But what if I shoot a wall or something? How can I store that as a Vector3?

Cheers


EDIT: I suppose I could add a Touch Object Event to the environment to get my Vector3... or is that a bit dodgy?

Have you tried the Raycast action?

Seems like you could make use of the same vector 3 thats aiming the weapon to help create the FX. Are you creating new objects for the projectiles? I I've been using the collision info and set parent to create the FX, whatever method you're using to identify impact should work. I cant really get a clear picture in my head of what you're describing.
