New Input System - How to load from JSON a wrapper generated from an inputActions asset?

Hi there! I’m learning the new input system and there’s a detail I don’t understand. When you check the “Generate C# class” in the inspector, a wrapper class is automatically generated for you from the inputActions asset. This wrapper generates some useful shortcuts, which is good. But what happens if I want to allow the user to rebind the default mappings? The users won’t be happy if they had to rebind the controls every time they start the game, so obviously I would persist those changes to a JSON file and load it the next time the game starts.

I know I can load it as an InputActionAsset, or a list of InputActionMaps, but the generated wrapper doesn’t provide any constructor to fed an externally loaded InputActionAsset. I could maybe create a subclass of it, but that doesn’t seems right.

Any suggestions?

I’ve posted some information for how to save and restore rebinds here .

APIs to simplify and help with this are coming in 1.1.

Oh! Now I understand why I was stuck with this. I couldn’t find information about it anywhere.

Thank you very much!
