Question How to detect Diagonal movement in 2D

So as part of a game I'm creating, I want to detect diagonal movement so I can change the sprite to suite it. This is the code I have so far in unity:

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2. if (moveInput == Vector2.up && (moveInput == Vector2.right || moveInput == Vector2.left))
3.         {
4.             anim.SetBool("UpSideRun", true);
5.         } else if (moveInput == Vector2.down && (moveInput == Vector2.right || moveInput == Vector2.left))
6.         {
7.             anim.SetBool("DownSideRun", true);
8.         } else
9.         {
10.             anim.SetBool("DownSideRun", false);
11.             anim.SetBool("UpSideRun", false);
12.         }

I at first tried to detect the diagonal movement by seeing if the Side Run bool and Up Run bool had been detected in the animator, but only one was able to be detected at a time.

 

This looks useful:

 

your code will never work, the moveInput cannot be equal to 2 different vectors at the same time

you should check for (1,1) for example


what you have right now is - if moveinput == 0,1 && moveInput ==1,0, obv it can only be one of them
