New Input System - Local Multiplayer Setup

I decided to use the new Input System (v1.0.0). My game is a local multiplayer (2 players), but the 2 players have completely different abilities (e.g. player 1 can run, player 2 can't). The input comes from two gamepads. I made two Action Maps, and attached a Player Input component to both players, then selected the Actions object for both and then the specific Default Map for each player (PlayerOne Action Map to Player 1, PlayerTwo Action Map to Player 2). What happens when I play the game is both players can do what only player 1 should be able to, and none of the players can do what player 2 should be able to do. I don't know how to assign each gamepad to the players (gamepad 1 to player 1, gamepad 2 to player 2), or how to separate the two. I'm a bit confused about the whole thing and there's not much information on multiplayer setup for the new system online, and I also can't use a prefab player.. Does anyone know how to even get started?

 

I have the same question. Did you ever got a solution? Any idea?

 

I used a workaround found in a tutorial on Youtube: Local Co-op in Unity using the New Input System - Tutorial, from Broken Knights Games. I hope it helps!

 

This should easily be fixed by using a PlayerInputManager (push button to join player)
