GetAxis to GetKey,

Archived Forums Questions & Answers

Hello,
I have a code that uses GetAxis and i want it to make it use GetKey (W,S,A,D).
The code is:

if(Mathf.Abs(Input.GetAxis("Vertical"))> 0.2f || Mathf.Abs(Input.GetAxis("Horizontal")) > 0.2f){
----------------------------------------and------------------------------------------

if (Input.GetAxis ("Vertical") != 0) {
			ourDrone.AddRelativeForce (Vector3.forward * Input.GetAxis ("Vertical") * movementForwardSpeed);
			tiltAmountForward = Mathf.SmoothDamp (tiltAmountForward, 20 * Input.GetAxis ("Vertical"), ref tiltVelocityForward, 0.1f);
		}
--------------------------------and--------------------------------------------------
	if (Mathf.Abs (Input.GetAxis ("Horizontal")) > 0.2f) {
			ourDrone.AddRelativeForce (Vector3.right * Input.GetAxis ("Horizontal") * sideMovementAmount);
			tiltAmountSideways = Mathf.SmoothDamp (tiltAmountSideways, -20 * Input.GetAxis ("Horizontal"), ref tiltAmountVelocity, 0.1f);
		}

Thank you in advance.,

Try this (not tested)

private float vertical ;
private float horizontal ;

private KeyCode positiveVerticalKey = KeyCode.W ;
private KeyCode negativeVerticalKey = KeyCode.S ;
private KeyCode positiveHorizontalKey = KeyCode.D ;
private KeyCode negativeHorizontalKey = KeyCode.A ;

void Update()
{
    // Forward
    if( Input.GetKeyDown( positiveVerticalKey ) )    vertical = 1 ;
    else if( Input.GetKeyUp( positiveVerticalKey ) ) vertical = Input.GetKey( negativeVerticalKey ) ? -1 : 0 ;
    
    // Backward
    if( Input.GetKeyDown( negativeVerticalKey ) )    vertical = -1 ;
    else if( Input.GetKeyUp( negativeVerticalKey ) ) vertical = Input.GetKey( positiveVerticalKey ) ? 1 : 0 ;
    
    // Right
    if( Input.GetKeyDown( positiveHorizontalKey ) )    horizontal = -1 ;
    else if( Input.GetKeyUp( positiveHorizontalKey ) ) horizontal = Input.GetKey( negativeHorizontalKey ) ? 1 : 0 ;
    
    // Left
    if( Input.GetKeyDown( negativeHorizontalKey ) )    horizontal = -1 ;
    else if( Input.GetKeyUp( negativeHorizontalKey ) ) horizontal = Input.GetKey( positiveHorizontalKey ) ? 1 : 0 ;
    
    if( Mathf.Abs(vertical)> 0.2f || Mathf.Abs(horizontal) > 0.2f )
    {
        if ( vertical != 0 )
        {
            ourDrone.AddRelativeForce (Vector3.forward * vertical * movementForwardSpeed);
            tiltAmountForward = Mathf.SmoothDamp (tiltAmountForward, 20 * vertical, ref tiltVelocityForward, 0.1f);
        }
        if ( Mathf.Abs ( horizontal ) > 0.2f )
        {
            ourDrone.AddRelativeForce (Vector3.right * horizontal * sideMovementAmount);
            tiltAmountSideways = Mathf.SmoothDamp (tiltAmountSideways, -20 * horizontal, ref tiltAmountVelocity, 0.1f);
        }
    }
}
