macOS iPhone SDK: Successive Touches?

[warstrekkid]

So I'm working on an iPhone app where I need it to deal with successive touches. In other words, one finger goes down, is held on the screen, and another finger goes down somewhere else. Unfortunately, I'm having difficulty with touchesBegan even recognizing the second finger going down. Right now, it recognizes multi-touch if they go down together. Does anyone know if successive touches are recognized (and I'm doing it wrong), or will I have to scrap this plan?

It's not a solution, but you can check to see if the second touch is recognised with something like:

NSUInteger numTaps = [[touches anyObject] tapCount];
if(numTaps >= 2) {
...
}
