Hi! I’m UNfire and I’m trying to make an endless runner mobile game. Since the tutorial that I found is kind of outdated (sorry to say that but the overall content is really helpful for non-programmers like me), and now I’m lost about how to add a control mapping to my character. For testing, the character can move between lanes by using left and right mouse buttons, and I also want to add screen touch so I can test the game on a mobile device. Once I add another mapping and check the “touch” section, all I found are touch 1, touch 2 … I really need some help about the new function since I haven’t found any tutorial about it on YouTube. Thanks for reading!
Hey there @Unfire! Welcome to the community! The enhanced input system for the most part is definitely a shift in how you approach input, so I understand the confusion! Here’s an excellent video from Ryan Laley that explains the input system itself quite well.
