This asset for Unity is a powerful Input System Manager that allows you to easily retrieve data from the Input System using Scriptable Objects as references to Input Actions. With this Singleton-based solution, you'll be able to speed up the process of game development and create a more intuitive user experience for your players.
- Singleton/Instance based script for easy global access.
- Plug'n'Play, just add your Input Action Asset and references to the Manager and start reading inputs!
- Key rebinding support.
- 2 methods to read inputs: Scriptable Objects and Strings!
- Simple one-line code to read any inputs.
- Perfect for Single-Player and Networked Multiplayer.
- Local Multiplayer/Split-Screen is not supported.
- Only one Action Map is supported.
- Download the asset and import to your Project.
- Create a new
Empty Game Objectand add theInputManager.cscomponent to it. - Create and configure a new
Input ActionsAsset. (Don't forget to install theInput System packagefrom thePackage Manager). - Drag and Drop or Select the
Input ActionsAsset in theInputManagercomponent. - Create reference/s for the asset clicking
Create > Scriptable Objects > Input Manager > InputActionReference, providing theNameand theTypeof the Action. - Add the reference/s to the
Input Managercomponent's array. - That's all. Now you can retrieve data from the actions by calling code from the InputManager's Instance.
You can retrieve data from the Input System Manager by using one of the 2 types as a reference.
