sprite kit - spritekit make childnode not touchable -

i have menu button (skspritenode) , small play icon inside sprite

mainbutton.addchild (playicon) mainbutton.name = "xyz" addchild (mainbutton) 

ok, gave button name check if sprite name touched.

when touch icon child inside button, touchednode.name nil. set isuserinteractionenabled = false icon child. want pass touch parent. how can this.

  touch in touches {              let location = touch.location(in: self)             let touchednode  = self.atpoint(location)              if (touchednode.name != nil) {                 print ("node \(touchednode.name!)")             } else {                 continue             }  } 

you have implement touchesbegan in subclass of skspritenode , set isuserinteractionenabled = true, in order accept , process touches particular node (button).

import spritekit  protocol buttondelegate:class {      func printbuttonsname(name:string?) }  class button : skspritenode{      weak var delegate:buttondelegate?      init(name:string){         super.init(texture: nil, color: .purple, size: cgsize(width: 250, height: 250))         self.name = name         self.isuserinteractionenabled = true         let icon = skspritenode(color: .white, size: cgsize(width:100, height:100))         addchild(icon)     }      required init?(coder adecoder: nscoder) {         fatalerror("init(coder:) has not been implemented")     }       override func touchesbegan(_ touches: set<uitouch>, event: uievent?) {            delegate?.printbuttonsname(name: self.name)     }   }  class gamescene: skscene, buttondelegate {      override func didmove(to view: skview) {          let button = button(name:"xyz")         button.delegate = self           button.position = cgpoint(x: frame.midx - 50.0, y: frame.midy)           addchild(button)      }      func printbuttonsname(name: string?) {          if let buttonname = name {             print("pressed button : \(buttonname) ")         }     } } 

now, button swallow touches , icon sprite ignored.

i modified code one of answers make example specific needs, can read, in link, whole thing more in detail if interested.
