gorilla tag to be specific

Doombox•2y ago

Depends on what input system the game is using you can use Keyboard.current etc.

ElmishhOP•2y ago

? the game is in vr it only uses vr inputs

Doombox•2y ago

you said mouse and keyboard input

ElmishhOP•2y ago

yes

Doombox•2y ago

which can be done with Keyboard.current on the new and Input.GetKeyDown on the old inputsystem one of those will work regardless of VR

ElmishhOP•2y ago

and what about mouse movement like left, right, up and down

Doombox•2y ago

Mouse.current.postiion/delta axis in the new inputsystem or Input.GetMouseAxis or whatever it was called, my memory on it is a bit vague this is all assuming it's a Unity game of course, but you're using BepInEx and it's a VR game so that's a safe assumption

ElmishhOP•2y ago

its a unity game yes what would that get? i want the movement of the mouse so if it goes down itll increase and if its still itll go back to 0

Doombox•2y ago

https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Input-mousePosition.html you'll have to track the position manually per-frame the old input system doesn't support per frame mouse delta i don't think

ElmishhOP•2y ago

if i do mousePosition - prevMousePosition would that work?

Doombox•2y ago

yup if the game is using the new inputsystem though it's a lot easier that will give you deltas out of the box

ElmishhOP•2y ago

what is the new input system i dont even know what a delta is...

Doombox•2y ago

https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Input-mousePosition.html

Doombox•2y ago

a delta is a change in something so a mouse position delta would be how much the mouse position has changed

ElmishhOP•2y ago

few minutes ill make something rq to test how it works

help... it used the old one -_- uses

Doombox•2y ago

uses the new one actually Input.mousePosition is the old system https://docs.unity3d.com/Packages/[email protected]/manual/index.html these are the full docs for it but it doesn't really cover how to use it like you're trying to what you want is Mouse.current. and the properties it has https://docs.unity3d.com/Packages/[email protected]/api/UnityEngine.InputSystem.Mouse.html delta will be the change since the last frame, and position will be the current position in pixel coords so in full var pos = Mouse.current.position.ReadValue<Vector2>();

ElmishhOP•2y ago

The non-generic method 'InputControl<Vector2>.ReadValue()' cannot be used with type arguments is what i get when i do that

mouseMovementY = Mouse.current.position.ReadValue<Vector2>().y;

mouseMovementY = Mouse.current.position.ReadValue<Vector2>().y;

Doombox•2y ago

oh yeah just remove <Vector2> memory failed me a bit there

ElmishhOP•2y ago

already tried that tho oh wait nvm i removed JUST Vector2 and left the <> lemme test it
