First Button Priority Fix

So, I’m working on a project for this year’s Halloween, and I decided on a Fantasy Zone-like game where you go up against a 5-10 minute boss.
Here’s the player code for the player:

public class Player : MonoBehaviour
{
    public float playerdir;
    public float dirrot;
    public Vector2 direction = new Vector2(0, 1);
                      public bool moveUp;
             public bool moveLeft; public bool moveRight;
                      public bool moveDown;
    // Start is called before the first frame update
    void Start()
    {
        Application.targetFrameRate = 30;
        playerdir = 1;
    }

    // Update is called once per frame
    void Update()
    {
        direction = (transform.localRotation * Vector2.right).normalized;
        transform.rotation = Quaternion.Euler(0, -dirrot,0);

        moveUp = Input.GetKey(KeyCode.W);
        moveRight = Input.GetKey(KeyCode.D);
        moveDown = Input.GetKey(KeyCode.S);
        moveLeft = Input.GetKey(KeyCode.A);

        if (playerdir == 1)
        {
            if (dirrot < 0)
            {
                dirrot += 12;
            }
        }
        if (playerdir == -1)
        {
            if (dirrot > -180)
            {
                dirrot -= 12;
            }
        }
        if (moveUp)
        {
           

        }
        else if(moveDown)
        {
           
        }
        if (moveRight)
        {
            playerdir = 1;

        }
        if (moveLeft)
        {
            playerdir = -1;

        }
     
    }
}

For some reason, I can press moveLeft while pressing moveRight and turn left, but not vice versa.
How can I make it so it works vice versa?

Just change your input to GetKeyDown instead of GetKey. Unless you need other code checking for continuous presses.

Yeah, the GetKeys will also be used for movement as well, which is why I would prefer if it worked in the opposite way as well.

Then just use both, no reason to hinder yourself.
