Make a Dictionary of OVRinputs.

Hi I cant cant seem to get my inputs to work and I'm not sure Iff Im doing this right.
I can get "KeyCode" to work with my code but I cant seem to make "OVRinput.Button" work. I can get KeyCode to work like :

Code (CSharp):

1. private static Dictionary<string, KeyCode> KeyCodeStrings = new Dictionary<string, KeyCode>()
2. {
3. {"MoveLeft", KeyCode.a},
4. {"MoveRight", KeyCode.d}
5. };

So Im trying to use the same thing but with OVRInput.Button as follows

Code (CSharp):

1. private static Dictionary<string, OVRInput.Button> OculusKeyStrings = new Dictionary<string, OVRInput.Button>()
2. {
3.        {"MoveLeft", OVRInput.Button.dpadLeft},
4.        {"MoveRight", OVRInput.Button.dpadright}
5. };

Could anyone clarify iff OVRInput.Button would work in this context ?

 

How are you trying to use this dictionary. I'm trying to imagine how a dictionary might be useful in handling input. especially if the Inputs are all in the value section and not the key part of the dictionary?

 

They get written to a text file "inputs.txt" kind of like a config file so you can change your inputs to differnet actions in the game or vice versa

 

I can post the rest of the code iff you like ?

 

Ah I understand now, your using them to allow configurable controls. I don't see why that wouldn't work to do something like this:

Code (CSharp):

1. void Update()
2. {
3.         If (OVRInput.GetDown(OculusKeyStrings["MoveLeft"]))
4.         {
5.                  // Do Move Left code
6.          }
7. }

 

Great ! thanks takatok, by applying your code it proved to me that my code should in theory work, because I placed the script on an object and I could get movement. So the reason I cant get my inputs working from the input.txt is from some other reason.
