When is onActionTriggered called?

Unity Engine
1

I’m new to this input system, but I’m just trying to have actions working, with no success.

I do this: playerInput.onActionTriggered += PlayerInput_onActionTriggered , but it never gets called.

Is there anything specific I should be doing for it to work properly?

I have a PlayerInputManager, I get the message of Player 1 joining, but then nothing.

I’m using a GamePad and the default InputActionsAsset.

Sorry for the lag here…

Looks like the PlayerNotifications.InvokeCSharpEvents codepath has been left unfinished and only the InvokeUnityEvents, SendMessages, and BroadcastMessages paths are fully wired up ATM. Choosing one of those notification types, actions should come through fine. I’ll make sure InvokeCSharpEvents gets hooked up in the next package.

Thanks for the response!

I ended up following InfaillibleCoder tutorial to make the system work even without the need of a PlayerInputManager.

Hello @Rene-Damm ,

Am in correct in my assessment that this is still broken as of Input System v0.9.5?

Currently running it on Unity v2019.3.0b1.

Thank you and be well!

I believe I have everything hooked up correctly. Not receiving these events as well. SendMessages is working, however. This is with a PS4 (dual shock) controller.

If I open up the input debugger and try to log the events, I get the following error:

Cannot find device for input event: id=2478889 type=STAT device=5 size=44 time=229.370581695561

It looks like this is still happening on v2019.3.0b4 and the package v1.0.0.

I tried to put some breakpoints that never got hit, then checked the PlayerInput code and it looks as if it’s still incomplete.

It works using Unity event invocation, so at least there’s that :).

I just updated my prototype to use the patched package and C# events work now indeed, thank you!
