I have been trying to find an example showing how to set up 2 button inputs that will cause an animation to take place. In my current project I have the X button to play let us say a left jab animation. But I also want the player to press RB+X to do a left hook animation. If anyone has an example of how to do this in the event graph it would be much appreciated.
Hey there @brightgamer! So in the most basic sense all you’d have to do is process the RB input then if X is pressed after the fact, fire an event. However, this can get messy fast for games that want combos/other modifier keys like fighting games. You may want a queue system to get the keys and then handle commands via them.

Thanks for helping out, I found what I was looking for though. Apparently, I needed to use enhance inputs and use the chorded actions to be able to use 2 inputs for one animation.
