Rebind not working

    Hello, I am using the new InputSystem for my game and have a simple action bound to the Space key on the keyboard.
    I am using the RebindActionUI from your samples and it seems to work alright. When I perform the interactive rebind, the new key is correctly shown on the UI (let's say the A key) but in game, I can only still jump with the Space key.
    I tried to update my Inputs with this snippet after the rebind :
    Code (CSharp):
    1. inputs = new Inputs();
    2. inputs.Player.Jump.performed += ....
    Still, only the Space key makes the player jump. Is there anything I should do after the rebind to update all of my Inputs instances ? Thanks.

    Note that the rebind needs to be performed *on* those actions. If you use the RebindActionUI component and drag an action from an .inputactions asset in there but then at runtime use the generated C# class, the rebinds won't have any effect as the generated C# code has no connection to the asset.

    @Rene-Damm Oh okay ! Then what is the point of the RebindActionUI ? Does it have a use at runtime ? Thanks.

    ATM it's most useful with PlayerInput or when using .inputactions directly. With the generated C# classes, you can still use it but the action references will have to be set dynamically at runtime.

    Ok I think using .inputactions might be the way to go for me in this case ! Thanks for your answers :)

    You're probably missing code to enable the action(s).
