Package Dependencies

📈 Improvements

  • Removed icons from action map list as these were always the same and the icon was placeholder
  • Input asset editor now switched to use UI Toolkit which matches the project wide input actions editor interface.
  • Changed [`InputActionProperty`](xref:UnityEngine.InputSystem.InputActionProperty) property drawer to be more compact. Use the More menu (`⋮`) button to open a dropdown menu and select between Use Reference and Use Action.
  • Static analysis warnings regarding flag enums have been suppressed in order to avoid compile-time warnings or errors.
  • Action Map and Action Tree views of the UI Toolkit based Input Action Editor now prevents deselection in both views when Escape key is pressed.
  • Input Action Asset editors Auto-save feature has been modified to trigger on focus-lost when activated instead of triggering on every modification to the asset in order to reduce impact of processing required to handle modified assets.
  • Project-wide input actions template extension changed from .inputactions to .json. This avoids showing template actions in the action's selector UI that are not intended to be used.
  • Re-enabled some UI tests that were disabled on iOS.
  • Reorganized package Project Settings so that "Input System Package" setting node contains "Input Actions" and "Settings" becomes a child node when Project-wide Actions are available. For Unity versions where Project-wide Actions are not available, the settings structure remains unchanged.
  • Make Project-wide Actions the default actions for Player Input.

✨ Features

  • Support for Game rotation vector sensor on Android
  • Duplicate Input Action Items in the new Input Action Asset Editor with Ctrl+D (Windows) or Cmd+D (Mac)
  • Selection of InputActionReferences from project-wide actions on fields that are of type InputActionReference. Uses a new advanced object picker that allows better searching and filtering of actions.
  • Reset project wide Input Settings to default via a new Kebab-menu in Input System Project Settings.

🔧 Bug Fixes

  • Partially fixed case ISX-1357 (Investigate performance regressing over time). A sample showed that leaving an InputActionMap enabled could lead to an internal list of listeners growing. This leads to slow-down, so we now warn if we think this is happening.
  • UI fix for input fields in interactions: they are wider now and the width is fixed.
  • Fixed exiting empty input fields for actions, action maps and composites in the input action asset editor.
  • Fixed an issue where selecting an Action in the Input Action Asset Editor tree-view and then pressing ESC to unselect would throw an `InvalidOperationException`.
  • Fixed an issue where selecting an Action Map in the Input Action Asset Editor list and then pressing ESC to unselect would print an `NullReferenceException` to the Debug console.
  • Fixed case ISXB-251 (Action only calls started & performed callbacks when control type is set to Vector3Composite). `EvaluateMagnitude` wasn't overridden for Vector3Composite, also made some minor changes to Vector3Composite and Vector2Composite for consistency.
  • Fixed case ISXB-580 (UI Submit / Cancel not working with Switch Pro controller) by adding "Submit" & "Cancel" usages to the Switch Pro controller input controls.
  • Fixed an issue where undoing deletion of Action Maps did not restore Actions correctly.
  • Fixed case ISXB-628 (OnIMECompositionChange does not return an empty string on accept when using Microsoft IME) by clarifying expectations and intended usage for the IME composition change event.
  • Fixed issue where the expanded/collapsed state of items in the input action editor was not properly saved between rebuilds of the UI.
  • Fixed issue where The Profiler shows incorrect data and spams the console with "Missing Profiler.EndSample" errors when there is an Input System Component in Scene).
  • Fixed an issue where undoing duplications of action maps caused console errors.
  • Fix for BindingSyntax `WithInteraction()` which was incorrectly using processors.
  • Fix for UITK Input Action Editor binding 'Listen' button which wasn't working in the case for Control Type 'Any'.
  • Fixed issue of visual elements being null during editing project-wide actions in project settings which prompted console errors.
  • Fixed case ISX-1436 (UI TK Input Action Asset Editor - Error deleting Bindings with DeleteKey on Windows).
  • Fixed issue with UI Toolkit based Input Action Editor not restoring it's selected items after Domain Reload.
  • Fixed the [`GetHapticCapabilitiesCommand`](xref:UnityEngine.InputSystem.XR.Haptics.GetHapticCapabilitiesCommand) always failing to execute due to a mismatch in the size in bytes of the payload and the size expected by XR devices. Changed [`HapticCapabilities`](xref:UnityEngine.InputSystem.XR.Haptics.HapticCapabilities) to include all properties returned by the XR input subsystem. This makes Input System match the functionality provided by the XR module's `InputDevice.TryGetHapticCapabilities` and `HapticCapabilities`.
