SteamVR Beta Input Action Issue

Questions & Answers
1

Hello, I have created a new input Action via the SteamVR Input window under the default action set called “Move”. I then mapped the action to the binding UI.

In a player movement script, I have created a public SteamVR_Action_Vector2 variable called move. I have assigned this variable via the editor’s dropdown selection as \actions\default\in\Move.

I have also assigned a public Hand variable as my Camera Rig’s LeftHand object.

In the update function of my player movement script, I call move.GetAxis(hand.handType) to get the axis of the touchpad.

The problem is, this error:
GetAnalogActionData error (/actions/default/in/Move): InvalidHandle handle: 1153002524869919043
UnityEngine.Debug:LogError(Object)
Valve.VR.SteamVR_Action_Vector2:UpdateValue(SteamVR_Input_Sources) (at Assets/SteamVR/Input/SteamVR_Action_Vector2.cs:49)

Valve.VR.SteamVR_Behaviour:Update() (at Assets/SteamVR/Scripts/SteamVR_Behaviour.cs:178)

I am thinking that there is something incomplete about the custom input action, but I do not know what.

This was a misleading issue. I think during testing I created the wrong type of binding, and assigned it to “Touch” on the touchpad. I then created a Vector2 binding of the same name. The UI reported the binding was assigned to Touch, but the error would occur. After renaming the binding, and looking through the UI, I found that the Vector2 type must be bound to Position, and did not show up as an option under Touch.
