Hi Ive encountered a bug with using two shift keys simultaneously. Im on Windows 7 and the bug happens in the editor and the web player.
The bug happens with any Input methods of Unity “GetKey” , “GetKeyUp” and “GetKeyDown”. I tried them all.
Here are two code snippets , try each one separately you will see the bug is consistent.
What happens is when pressing two shift keys one after another (left then right or right then left) , if you release the second shift key you pressed before releasing the first shift key you pressed - it does not register with unity.
The bug only happens in that order … meaning if after pressing two shift keys , releasing the first key you pressed first will work fine as well as then releasing the second shift key , so please test it as mentioned above.
This is not a keyboard hardware problem (non n-key rollover etc) as I have some pinball engines on my computer that use dual shift keys without any problem.
- GetKeyUp/GetKeyDown
if(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.LeftShift)){
Debug.Log("GetKeyDown left shift");
};
if(Input.GetKeyUp(KeyCode.LeftShift)){
Debug.Log("GetKeyUp left shift");
};
if(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.RightShift)){
Debug.Log("GetKeyDown right shift");
};
if(Input.GetKeyUp(KeyCode.RightShift)){
Debug.Log("GetKeyUp right shift");
};
- GetKey
if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.LeftShift)){
Debug.Log("GetKey left shift");
};
if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.RightShift)){
Debug.Log("GetKey right shift");
};
Could someone else please test this? I did google it to see if anything popped up about newer versions of Unity having perhaps fixed this but didnt not see any results so im not sure.
So not solely a 3.5 problem…
