Attempting to use ButtonSouth doesn't work in InputSystem

Unity Engine
1

Hello.

I have a PlayerInput on my Player Object and a script setup to receive messages as per the documentation. I have an action (QuickTurn/OnQuickTurn) that never gets called. It’s setup to use ButtonSouth on gamepads. When I open the Input Debugger window, I can see that the button is working, but the message in my script isn’t firing. Is this a known bug? I was attempting to get multi tap to work with this button when I realized nothing was working for this specific button, not even a single press.

edit: using version 2019.3.0b6

That wasn’t the problem at all. The action name had a space in it and that caused an incorrect function signature, but there was no error. Sorry!

Yeah, that’s an easy trap with the message-based path. It is quite brittle.
