Getting Stack Overflow error with new Input system

Unity Engine
1

I am trying to learn how to use the new Input System and while editing the actions of the InputActionAsset I got this error

Now when I try to edit the actions of a Player Input component none of them will pop up. If I continue to edit the actions of the InputActionAsset I will continue to get the same error. I’m not sure if I’m doing something incorrectly that is causing the error or if this is a bug. Please help.

We get the same error in U2019.3.0f6 with 1.0.0 preview 4

I forgot to add, I’m using U2019.2.19f1 with the 1.0.0 preview 4 InputSystem package

I’ve reported an issue.

I made it work, switching the PlayerInput behaviour property to SendMessage and back to InvokeUnityEvents,

It appears that the stackoverflow happens when it is trying to get the actions but it is called again before it could end so it loop itself until crash

I was able to get around this bug for now by deleting the PlayerInput component and creating a new one.

I can confirm you have to remove the component PlayerInput and create a new one to get rid of it.

Create a new object with a new PlayerInput. I had the same problem, I think it uses your object to serialize the actions, then if you change the actions but not the object it tries to load the old actions too
