extensible InputSystemUIInputModule

Hello.
Any plans for make InputSystemUIInputModule extensible ?

for example:

Code (CSharp):

1. public class MyCustomModuleTest : InputSystemUIInputModule
2. {
3.      public float MaxInteractionDistance = 1.2f;
4.  
5.      override InputSystemUIInputModule methods here
6. }

Now it has no errors but nothing worked and missing all ui in inspector (see screenshots).

 

bump

 

Good news! Thanks for reply Rene ^_^

 

Any update on this? Need to add a simple log whenever a click happens. If the private methods in InputSystemUIInputModule were 'protected' it would be trivial!

 

Not a great solution by any means but as a workaround, should be possible to just take the UI module source from the input system package, put it in your project in a different namespace and modify it to your liking.

 

Hmm I actually tried that, but can't get it to compile for whatever reason. I changed the name of the class and the filename, changed the namespace, tried commenting out the compiler directive at the top of the class and saw a bunch of errors. *shrugs*

 

Ah right, think it references some internal utility stuff.

Final resort would be to just copy com.unity.inputsystem into the project's Packages folder (so it becomes an embedded package) and then change the modifiers to protected on InputSystemUIInputModule. Updating to new versions will be slightly more annoying but with a modification as minor as that, should be pretty painless still.
