Hey everyone! To those of you who can't find the package: Unity has moved the "Show Preview Packages". You can now find it under Edit -> Project Settings -> Package Manager -> Enable Preview Packages. If you check that box, you should see preview packages in the Package Manager! :-) Stay awesome!
If you can't select stick : click on Action -> action type -> value, then under it you can select stick. Now you can bind your stick and don't forget to save asset !
For those wondering, "Action" is located when you press the green icon bar that we named "Move" (dont click the plus). There, it will show "Action" in the same place that binding normally shows
My year 1 uni assignment is due and I wanted to use controller input. Thank you so much, this tutorial is a lifesaver! I'm so sad that you retired from YT, hands down my favourite teacher on here.
47Mortuus sure, yeah, if you’re using straight up keyboard inputs. We’re talking about controller support, which requires using the Input system’s “actions” with axis settings.
@@PixelDough I guess so - that what the new system is best at: controller and especially cross-platform support. But even then - I don't see how 10 bytes of garbage per frame (unless you don't have an input manager and actually call Input.GetAxisRaw() form more than one script) has any significance.
Unity 2019.3.12f1 on MacOS and Xbox One Controller. I wasn't able to select the "Left Stick" option on the Binding Path, only its child (Up, Down, Left, Right). What I did was select any of the child and pressing the small "T" button I changed the text to "/leftStick" and now it works fine.
I was looking at another video on how to do multiplayer with this system and they showed exactly how to do it without this workaround. Click on "Move" (for example), change Action Type to "Value", and then change the Control Type to "Stick". Then when you click listen, it'll show up as "Left Stick". Hope this helps! czcams.com/video/D8nUI88POU8/video.html
Using movement that way has a really odd behaviour in which the movement of the stick isn't updated every time. Instead, I wrote move = controls.Gameplay.Move.ReadValue(); inside Update() and everything is working absolutely fine now. Hopefully this will help others watching this video. Thanks anyways to the Brackeys team educating me about how the new Input System works!
Beware when using lambda expressions on non volatile objects, since it's not possible to substract them, unless you save a reference to the lambda you'll create a new one if you write it again which won't be present on the action list.
I'm sure there are at least a few users watching this wondering how to go about setting up multiple unique controllers for co-op/local multiplayer, and keeping any given input asset instance from receiving input data from EVERY SINGLE active device. Having struggled to figure this out myself months ago, especially since I also wanted to make it work with the auto-generated C# class feature as well to take advantage of all the safety features C# provides when working with it, I thought I'd share the solution I came up with, which uses a lesser-talked about feature of the New Input System called Input Users (note that in my example, "InputReference" is the name of the input action asset and by extension the C# class): using UnityEngine.InputSystem; using UnityEngine.InputSystem.Users; public class Player { public readonly InputReference Input; private InputUser User { get; } public Player(params InputDevice[] devices) { Input = new InputReference(); User = InputUser.CreateUserWithoutPairedDevices() User.AssociateActionsWithUser(Input); for (int i = 0; i < devices.Length; i++) InputUser.PerformPairingWithDevice(devices[i], User, i == 0 ? InputUserPairingOptions.UnpairCurrentDevicesFromUser : InputUserPairingOptions.None); } public void Decommission() { User.UnpairDevicesAndRemoveUser(); } } With this class, I could create a unique Player object for each active player. Notice in the constructor that in addition to the input action asset instance, an InputUser is also created, with which the input asset instance is then paired. Once that's done, each input device passed in to the constructor (the params allows for any number, letting me pass in, say, either a single controller, or a keyboard and mouse as a pair), is also paired to the InputUser. Now, the input asset instance will only receive events _from those specific devices_, which lets me register for a specific player's move/jump/whatever as opposed to _every_ player's move/jump/whatever and then needing to figure out which device it originated from. Note there's also a decommissioning method, to clear the user and pairings out if you need to deactivate a player. This will ensure device pairings, input user entries, and other behind-the-scenes things get cleaned up when you no longer need them.
Thank you! This solved my issue. Had to make a few small modifications to the original script being used in the video to reference this class, but works like a charm. In my case, I was using xbox controls (hence, XInputController class, see docs on the input system for other supported classes like DualShock). In my case, I named the same class you have above as "UniqueLocalMultiplayer": using UnityEngine.InputSystem; using UnityEngine.InputSystem.XInput; ... ... XInputController xboxInputController = (XInputController)GetComponent().devices[0]; var ulm = new UniqueLocalMultiplayer(xboxInputController); // Declared "input = new InputReference()" in class I copied from you, used lowercase for mine controls = ulm.input; controls.Player.Movement.performed... controls.Player.Movement.canceled... controls.Player.Jump.performed... ...
Oh my goodness this is SO much easier than Unity's old system! Can you use this same system to set multiple controller types, that the player can switch between? Such as switching between Keyboard/mouse and Controller, and using a config to set prefered actions to different keys? This could make accessibility access SO much easier to manage!
Hell ya thank you Brackeys, your smile and positive energy plus great content really keeps me motivated and learning as I learn the ins and outs of Game Development. Thank you so much!
Can you make videos were you play games created or suggested by fans and this allows you to give them tips on what they can improve on and what you like about their game. That would be amazing to watch!
I spent like a month trying to get it to work and now you're here telling me that the new input system makes it easy! DAMN IT Edit: I actually tried to recreate you're ballgame
Thank, just what we were looking for. This is a great starting point. Next steps for us is to find out how to trigger animations using this method. Walk, Run, Jump, Punch, Kick.
I think the explanation of Lambda functions is possibly confusing, it doesn't really explain anonymous parameters and doesn't explain how it can be used in a real sense, other than to ignore the parameters being passed in and 'make it work' for this case. What's wrong with passing the parameter in anyway and just ignoring it? It's easier to read than some complex syntax that could be hard to understand in certain situations.
Hey there Brackeys! First of all: Thank you so much. Your tutorials are helping me a lot in my game dev journey. Second: I've got 2 questions. Why is this better than the old input system? Aaaand... Could you make a tutorial on navigating a UI with a controller? Like an inventory or something. Love youuu
I’m definitely comfortable with the getkey method of doing inputs but this seems like a great system to switch to for lots of reasons. Thanks Brackeys :)
@@nostalgia5031 many people use controllers on PC as well because the fine control of an analog stick over the either off or on control of buttons like WASD.
Thank you for the video - I was wondering how this new system was turning out. From first glance, this looks unnecessarily clunky and complicated. I'm happy I invested in Rewired awhile ago - much easier/cleaner syntax and setup, and it handles every controller I've ever tried.
I've got one question Brackeys: Do you have telepathic powers? First ragdoll physics, now game controller. The exact series I need to create a realistic humanoid movement script. Thanks!!!!!!!!
Thank you so much, this was a well demo video. But we are now out of beta. I love to see a updated using the new Player Input and with the Behavior using 'Invoke C Sharp Events'
for some reason when I do this it gives me an error - Object reference not set to an instance of an object PlayerControls.Initialize () (at Assets/PlayerControls.cs:22)
PlayerControls is the name he gives to his object at the step where he create a new input action. Check the c# file you created at the step "generate c# script". select the name of the class (it looks like how you named the input action) and replace "PlayerControls" by it in your code, and voila
Hello. I keep getting this error Assets\Cube.cs(16,18): error CS1061: 'PlayerControls' does not contain a definition for 'Gameplay' and no accessible extension method 'Gameplay' accepting a first argument of type 'PlayerControls' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
I'm looking forward to seeing this come out of preview, it reduces spaghetti code so much; need to get used to the syntax, but it makes things so much cleaner
Unity gives me the error code saying "The type of namespace name 'InputSystem' does not exist in the namespace 'UnityEngine' " After doing the initial Grow function script. Any ideas on why that is the case??
It doesn't, it just sets a callback when the button is pressed. What that means is you telling it at the start to call a bit of code every time a specific event happens, and in this case it's the Grow() function that is called each time the down button is pressed.
You're not checking if the button is pressed. We're adding an action to the "performed" event. The input system constantly listens to the controller inputs and if a button that triggers "Grow" is pressed, all previously added actions are called. It's like having an empty function in the beginning and you can add statements to its body at runtime.
ohhhhh thanks, when I saw all the options that Unity gave to connect a control, with your video I finally managed to understand how to use the Input System library. Unfortunately in my language there was not a good tutorial on how to do this, many games already made with the scripts already made and since I did not have that project they were working with, It was impossible for me to know how the package worked when they used ready-made programs, instead of showing how each command worked. Anyway thanks
If you want to move the player on x and z axis, do the following: Change variable "Vector2 move;" to -> "Vector3 move;" The "void Awake()" section will not change, what you need to change is the "void Update()" part: From: Vector2 m = new Vector2(-move.x, move.y) * Time.deltaTime; To: Vector3 m = new Vector3(-move.x, 0, -move.y) * Time.deltaTime; Note that Vector3 takes 3 values(x, y, z). Use 0 in y and use "-move.y" as the z Same as for x move, the minus is to have that "non-inverted" behavior/feeling
Like, i recently went trough hell making input system for xbo controller, and now you are uploading a tutorial... witch is great, but now i see my life is kinda ironic
it is really simple to integrate using the PlayerInputManager docs.unity3d.com/Packages/com.unity.inputsystem@1.0/manual/Components.html#playerinputmanager-component
I know you probably already solved it, but in case you didn't or anyone else is wondering like I did, here's how: On the row -> Vector2 m = new Vector2(move.x, move.y) * Time.deltaTime; you can simply change it to a Vector3. -> Vector3 m = new Vector3(move.x, 0f, move.y) * Time.deltaTime;
Hello, welcome from the future! This example only works in the 1.0.0+ version if you call .Enable() on your PlayerControls variable before assigning action callbacks
If you have the issue where wasd works but a joystick doesn't (InvalidOperationException: Cannot read value of type 'float' from control...blah blah error) Use a simple binding for map the joystick. Set the Action to "Pass Through" and " Vector 2". That worked for me
neat. so how would you use WASD keyboard movement with the new input system? would you have to make one for each button, or do they have something like horizontal and vertical axis?
for keyboard there are input settings in unity implemented. please look for them in the setting to get them right. - docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Input.GetKeyDown.html - jumping, fire weapon, walking around with arrow and WASD is already implemented in unity
'PlayerControls' does not contain a definition for 'Gameplay' and no accessible extension method 'Gameplay' accepting a first argument of type 'PlayerControls' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) Anyone has an idea why this happens?

This is best tutorial i have ever seen for teaching Gamepad in Unity. However, I have s small question: I am currently developing a PC game and I just did the input from the keyboard. Is there a way to adapt this into GamePad? This tutorial seems to be good for making a game from scrash but not to pit in GamePad what it is already done in keyboard. Thanks for your attention. Greetings.
at 15:20 the only reason he has to invert the X axis, is like he said, he has his camra flipped and facing the back of the cube, if it weefacing the front of the cube he wouldn't have to invert th X axis. Small things he probably just forgot while setting up his camera, or did on purpose for the purpose of learning and letting you know if you flipped you camera, invert the axis you flipped your camera by

Exactly what I was struggling with like 2 weeks ago ! Thanks a lot!
I don’t understand why you can check if a button is pressed in the awake function, since the awake function is only called once (at the start).
It doesn't check that the button is pressed, it just tells the input system that "when x is pressed on the controller, run this function"
It doesn't, it just sets a callback when the button is pressed. What that means is you telling it at the start to call a bit of code every time a specific event happens, and in this case it's the Grow() function that is called each time the down button is pressed.

If you want to move the player on x and z axis, do the following:
Change variable "Vector2 move;" to -> "Vector3 move;"
The "void Awake()" section will not change, what you need to change is the "void Update()" part:
From:
Vector2 m = new Vector2(-move.x, move.y) * Time.deltaTime;
To:
Vector3 m = new Vector3(-move.x, 0, -move.y) * Time.deltaTime;
Note that Vector3 takes 3 values(x, y, z). Use 0 in y and use "-move.y" as the z
Same as for x move, the minus is to have that "non-inverted" behavior/feeling

On the row -> Vector2 m = new Vector2(move.x, move.y) * Time.deltaTime; you can simply change it to a Vector3.
-> Vector3 m = new Vector3(move.x, 0f, move.y) * Time.deltaTime;
Can you make a tutorial for water physics? (Mario swimming style)
I think you should try to make a water tag for the tutorial as well!
Just slow down the gravity and movement underwater, add force with the press of a button. Too simple for a video. Do the research yourself
@@aquaarmour4924 Well I'm a bit of a beginner so I need to learn how to make that code.
once again, brilliant - gonna be so much easier save so much time. thx again mate.
Hello, welcome from the future! This example only works in the 1.0.0+ version if you call .Enable() on your PlayerControls variable before assigning action callbacks
i spent like 1 day trying to fucking fix this holy shit you saved my game lol
Dude, awesome content! Really well explained! Thank's a bunch!
You are the best !
I have an idea, why not make a tutorial for a fighting game like Tekken or Super Smash Bros ?
Great tutorial!
Do you think you could make a video in the future about multiple gamepads using the new input system?
10:45 if you don't use the parameter, just call it _ that just makes it easier to read. :)
@Nuke Dukem are you okay ? :)
@Nuke Dukem This is pretty standard stuff. VS Code even gives you a warning if you don't use a parameter and don't call it _
Great video as always! I would love it if You could make a video on building a game for console and how to play it on a console.
The only way to do so is to be a certified dev with that console's company.
If you have the issue where wasd works but a joystick doesn't (InvalidOperationException: Cannot read value of type 'float' from control...blah blah error)
Use a simple binding for map the joystick. Set the Action to "Pass Through" and " Vector 2". That worked for me
Can you please make a video to explain the new multiplayer system of unity 2019
perfect timing!
neat. so how would you use WASD keyboard movement with the new input system? would you have to make one for each button, or do they have something like horizontal and vertical axis?
Did you find an answer to this? I have the same question right now.
for keyboard there are input settings in unity implemented. please look for them in the setting to get them right. - docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Input.GetKeyDown.html - jumping, fire weapon, walking around with arrow and WASD is already implemented in unity
@@Katze3103The Link you provided just references the old way to do it.
@@BaconDeez that changed so quickly. and there are always numberous ways to get to goal.
'PlayerControls' does not contain a definition for 'Gameplay' and no accessible extension method 'Gameplay' accepting a first argument of type 'PlayerControls' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
Anyone has an idea why this happens?
you need to save your input map thingy. at the top it has a save button. click it
@@connora6218 oh yeah I had already found that out like 1 hour after posting this comment but I forgot to come back here and delete the comment afterwards, but thanks anyway!
This is best tutorial i have ever seen for teaching Gamepad in Unity. However, I have s small question: I am currently developing a PC game and I just did the input from the keyboard. Is there a way to adapt this into GamePad? This tutorial seems to be good for making a game from scrash but not to pit in GamePad what it is already done in keyboard. Thanks for your attention. Greetings.
Thank You Sir!
Im trying to do this with version of Unity 2019.3.0f1 and InputSystemPackage ver 1.0.0 preview and it doesnt work. Is anyone having the same issue?
yeah, doesn't seem to work like that anymore... also can't do it. i could do the transform, but both movements did not happen.
@@gabrielserra did you reload unity?
@@EchoPrograms I can't remember what was the solution, but i found it on the comment section of this video eventually
at 15:20 the only reason he has to invert the X axis, is like he said, he has his camra flipped and facing the back of the cube, if it weefacing the front of the cube he wouldn't have to invert th X axis. Small things he probably just forgot while setting up his camera, or did on purpose for the purpose of learning and letting you know if you flipped you camera, invert the axis you flipped your camera by
thanks man!!
I believe you made a conscious decision to use the Lambda Functions there as they add unnecessary complexity, you could just made functions with the Context Parameter. Nice to see the ramp up in complexity on your videos, with shader work and now Lambdas, thank you so much for your videos!
Great video. Too bad that you had to stop. You should in some way get back to it. Thanks.
