BindAction & BindAxis in PlayerController seems not to work

Development Programming & Scripting C++

Hello folks,

I created a Character with an InputComponent which worked flawless.
Now I tried to do the same with a Player Controller.

I Set my Binding in the Editor and checked its Name multiple Times.
I also set my Controller inside my GameMode

if I execute the method Test inside the Tick method it is succesfully executed as expected.
However I cant execute it with the Binding.

Did I forget something that has to be done inside the Controller what you dont have to do inside the Character? :confused:

Any Help is much appreciated :slight_smile:

Here is the very basic code how I tried to test the Binding.

ABasePlayerController::ABasePlayerController()
{
	bShowMouseCursor = true;
	DefaultMouseCursor = EMouseCursor::Crosshairs;	
}


void ABasePlayerController::PlayerTick(float DeltaTime)
{
	
}

void ABasePlayerController::SetupInputComponent()
{
	Super::SetupInputComponent();

	InputComponent->BindAction("Test", IE_Pressed, this, &ABasePlayerController::Test);
	
	GEngine->AddOnScreenDebugMessage(-1, 5.f, FColor::Yellow, FString::Printf(TEXT("TEST: SetupInputComponent")));

}


void ABasePlayerController::Test()
{
	GEngine->AddOnScreenDebugMessage(-1, 5.f, FColor::Yellow, FString::Printf(TEXT("TEST: Strave")));
}
