Unity new Input System - The SIMPLEST way

[@maxgames.5690]

finally a video about the new input system that goes straight to the point and isn't long, ty very much

[@Enginering]

lol 😂 i was trying to comment same thing

[@Jicefrost]

same comment)

[@lepe]

I couldn't stop staring at that "OnDisalbe" lol

[@goldkat99]

Absolutely brilliant, I had given up on my game back in march because I tried to refactor it to the new input system and I could not figure it out. All of the documentation and videos at the time were incredibly confusing but your video was comprehensive and straight to the point.

[@johneyre9493]

This was by far the best tutorial I've seen on the new Input system.

[@kitchenspider1539]

A much needed tutorial, thank you! For a long time I was confused by the input action controller component and linking it to events. Now that I see how this is implemented purely in code, it is a lot clearer (and cleaner imo).

[@wadeeliason969]

I agree. I had created a character and code from various tutorials using the old input system. But was a little confused on how to migrate to the new system. My other thought is implementing it into the UI controlling.

[@kitchenspider1539]

@@wadeeliason969 I think the biggest source of confusion for me was the PlayerInput component, which is imo virtually worthless and I've heard there is a consensus on that. I kept thinking the Input control asset, the PlayerInput component and the code were all supposed to work together as one system when in actuality you're better off using the asset w/code, or doing it all with code in simpler cases like the video here. Infallible Code has an excellent video on using the asset without the confusion of having the PlayerInput component here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o6fYiYKvgN9qoZY Thats if you need a bit more complexity to the assignment of your controls without having to hard code each callback. He uses an interface from the auto-generated class to automagically generate all the events and their callbacks for you... so you basically reference ONE thing (the interface) and you can do your OnMove(), OnJump(), or whatever actions you have set up in the asset without having to do all the other crap, like the lambda callback ctx statements for every action. I didn't know these callbacks were already coded in the auto-generated class as an interface until I watched this video, and this has simplified the input system tremendously for me.

[@kodaxmax]

@@kitchenspider1539 yeh im not sure how they ever thought the added convolutedness of needing a controller and such was easier than typing Input.getAxis("buttonName");

[@visclo4782]

ah it's so sad I can't kiss you because of the pandemic, thank you sooo much dude! 9 min video and you managed to learn me something I couldn't figure out for a whole day

Very helpful. I am trying to learn the new input system and just slowly expand on it instead of diving right in and this is exactly what i needed.

[@random_precision_software]

I love coMing across new channels(to me anyway) and can't wait for more content! Subbed!

[@natedizzy4939]

omfg so many bad tutorials that do not teach you ANYTHING about using the system. i just finished a tutorial that was 20 minutes and 2 full (dense af) pages of code to do what you did in a few lines. and that one didnt even work properly. on top of that it was very difficult to keep up with what was happening in the code...also actually explaining what you do and why helps a lot too. thank you!

[@TheEquilibrium66]

Thank you so much, i was going to be crazy about new input system ( i'm new to programming) and finally i found a clean and correct way to do things, thank you again!

[@spectralspace8866]

i have watched tutorials about new input system. Now i learned after I've watched this!.

[@haachamachama7]

Man, I understand why they made this new input system, as it's a lot more versatile, but it's not very easy to figure out on your own lol, wow, what a confusing system! I've been using the old system for the past year, just started a job where the team was using the new system, I spend hours trying to figure it out, even looking at the code they used for movement, I had no clue it could be done this way. Thanks for the tutorial.

[@puppamilaspranga]

this is such a useful video... i'm a noob at coding and all the videos i found are so hard to understand. I tried different videos and different methods with the "callbacks" but none of them worked. I'm so grateful

[@sasakiluna]

i made the move speed a public float so it is easier to optimize. great tutorial helped a lot.

[@dmtuan]

It's quite useful to have the ability to assign key bindings in the Inspector in the script. Didn't know you can do that. Thanks!

[@lee1davis1]

Put this in my unity must watch playlist. Great job simplifying this.

You made the absolute simplest tutorial I've been able to find on this topic. Thank you so much. Would you be interested in making another video, or leaving a comment, on how to add button commands? I know its a "binding" but I can't figure out how to access the bindings I made in my script.

That is a method given by the Character Controller component in Unity :)

thats such a good video but i didnt understand when you called the input so i dont now how to make my player to shoot using this plz someone help

[@SaSeshen]

You are perhaps the only video out there that actually uses mouse movement in their tutorial for the Input System, however I have a couple questions. What is delta vs position for the mouse input? How do I use a system in which it is just a move on click, ie. I right click on the screen and my player moves there? What is the purpose of the Player Controller Component (does it save us some code writing?) I will say this though creating a script that lets you build a custom action map from the editor was something I hadn't seen and is absolutely genius!

[@tikokito5778]

Thank you Bro. Awesome tutorial. simple and good!

[@samgraham5731]

[@mboe94]

Do you not use the input manager at all? Everything through the script?

[@tntclan65]

I don’t get the wasd input do you know how to fix this 2:05

[@4ndresC]

Why don't you have to instantiate the InputAction object?

[@n8dev]

Really great tutorial! Although at the beginning when you use public variables to serialize your values in the inspector, that is actually really bad practice, in OOP you should try to abstract as much as you can; other classes should only be able to see what they need to see, so using [SerializeField] would be much better in this case

[@manasjoshi5957]

Great video man 👌

[@Faisal-jo5vk]

how do i make it jump?

[@tuxdoesstuff]

how about for bindings?

[@johncardussi]

2 questions: 1) The mouse was moving way faster than the keys. To fix that do you create another InputAction for the mouse so you can use a different speed value? 2) Is there a way to redefine the keys so players can customize their controls to say use the arrow keys?

[@GwynPerry]

I haven't tested this, but when you set up a binding you have the option to add Interactions and Processors. Under the Processors, there are options to scale and clamp the input, amongst others. I'm guessing some combination of these can be used to adjust the mouse sensitivity.

[@juten6020]

I'm lost. This is a great way to use the new inputsystem for movement. However, for normal functions, I'm kind of lost. Could someone help with this? For example, if I wanted to make an attack button, how would I do this?

[@jamesflips6213]

To reference a single button, you first add it to the OnEnable and OnDisable functions just like you did with wasd. In the Awake function, you can write attack.performed += _ => Attack(); this will allow you to create a function that is called when you press the binding for the attack action. For example, if you were to write void Attack(), then you can create a bool called attacked and set it to true in this function. Finally, in the update function you can write: if(attacked) { (attack code) attacked = false; } something like that allows you to have an attack ability, but you'll have to figure out how to write the actual attack code on your own because I have no clue how lol. Hope this helps!

[@jamesflips6213]

nvm its as simple as writing if(attack.triggered) in the update function lmao

[@hiddenworlds225]

Great video! I know this is a bit off-topic, but where did you get the material for the floor? I see people use it, but I could never find it.

[@gabrielaguiar5984]

Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal") how I can make this in New input System?(i think is 1D but, im not sure how to use)

[@saiverx]

I guess I haven't spent too much time staring at my code yet, but my input is only detected for a split second. I dont know what it is that cancels out my input, but I did check the input using the debug.log method and it only detects me holding the button for a few frames/a split second. Any ideas on a fix? I really dont understand what could be causing this, seeing as it is the first line of code inside the Update void...

[@saiverx]

Here`s the solution: I had set the Action Type to "Pass Through" and not "Value". Setting it to Value fixed it for me. :) Altough it has worked perfectly as pass through but suddenly it stopped working. That's when I sought to a tutorial such as this one to find my error.

[@taltra9922]

Thank you for the video, it is the only tutorial that worked for me. But can you upload your project somewhere? My game prototype works but in the console I get literal hundreds of errors. MissingComponentException: There is no 'CharacterController' attached to the "Input" game object, but a script is trying to access it. You probably need to add a CharacterController to the game object "Input". Or your script needs to check if the component is attached before using it. I checked and there is a controller attached to my object

Hey, I was wondering about whether you think this input system would be good if you are planning to allow players to rebind keys, or maybe this is only good for prototyping.

I'd use it for that, for sure :) I'd say you'd be able to make it relatively easily.

If you want something that is read only 1 frame: inputAction.triggered If you want to read it each frame, read the float value and check if it is greater than 0

@@RumpledCode I've figured it out. (Keyboard.current.wKey.wasPressedThisFrame) This is what I was looking for. Thank you kindly for the video and the comment, I've subbed! :) But this method isn't as responsive as I would like. If I press the buttons very fast, it doesn't update as fast as I am pressing.
