PlayerInputManager onPlayerJoined and PlayerInput onActionTriggered

Hello everybody

I am trying to get into the details and implement the new input system in a prototype of mine. For this purpose I wanted to do a turn based game but some events don't really work or don't work the way expected. I hope somebody can explain to me how I am supposed to use them or if it is a bug.

Bug one is with the PlayerInputManager. I have read the docs (https://docs.unity3d.com/Packages/c...manual/Components.html#notification-behaviors) and I have a gameobject with a player input manager and a script of mine. If I listen to onPlayerJoined I do not get a callback (PlayerInputManager Notification Behaviour set to "Send Messages"). I have to switch the Notification Behaviour to Unity Events and manually reference my script methods for it to work. Is this a bug?

The Function PlayerManager_onPlayerJoined is never called. Even though the player spawning does work.

Code (CSharp):

1. private void Start()
2.     {
3.         playerManager = PlayerInputManager.instance;
4.         // not working
5.         // playerManager.onPlayerJoined += PlayerManager_onPlayerJoined;
6.     }

When referencing it manually with unity events (like in the screenshot) it does get called.


The second thing that is bothering me is in the playerJoined function. I can't get a trigger when I subscribe to onActionTriggered. I have to breadcrumb through PlayerInput.currentActionMap.actions.performed to add a function callback. I either missunderstand the onActionTriggered or it is not working either.

Code (CSharp):

1. public void PlayerJoined(PlayerInput input)
2.     {
3.         // not working
4.         // input.onActionTriggered += Input_onActionTriggered;
5.  
6.         for (int i = 0; i < input.currentActionMap.actions.Count; i++)
7.         {
8.             if (input.currentActionMap.actions[i].name == "Fire")
9.             {
10.                 input.currentActionMap.actions[i].performed += SwitchRounds_performed;
11.             }
12.         }
13.     }

 

In case that anyone needs to make it work. Change it to Invoke Csharp Events and it will get called.
