If your pressing one key, how to disable another?

Hi, for my game I need a simple function that says if “Sprint” is pressed “Fire1” and “Fire2” cannot be pressed. I’ve just started using unity and i have tried everything I know to try and get this to work. I’m sure this is very easy for someone, so it would be great if anyone could give me a pointer of how to do it. (And possibly explain how it works because, I don’t just want to copy and paste.)

Hope someone can help, Thanks. Andy123W

You can try something like this:

if (Input.GetButton("Sprint"))
{
	print ("Sprinting");
} else {
	
	if (Input.GetButton("Fire1"))
	{
		print ("Fire1 action");
	}
	
	if (Input.GetButton("Fire2"))
	{
		print ("Fire2 action");
	}
}

OK, thanks I will try it!

Just in case anyone else wants to know, I found a solution where just before the shooting code (Fire1) and the ADS code (Fire2) I put the code:

if(Input.GetButton("Sprint") == false)

This means that you can only run the “shooting” and “Aim down sight”, code if you are not holding down the “Sprint” button.
