When pressing Shift... why is not working?

Hello Unity community,

I'm trying to Strafe while pressing down shift with the new Input System.

I have my Inputs working.




But when I hold Shift, the movement doesn't work.

I am using if triggered and the Debug tells me the Shift gets pressed, but the movement is not happening.

Code (CSharp):

1. using System.Collections;
2. using System.Collections.Generic;
3. using UnityEngine;
4. using UnityEngine.InputSystem;
5.  
6. public class Player : MonoBehaviour
7. {
8.     public InputMaster controls;
9.     Vector2 move;
10.    
11.  
12.  
13.     void Awake()
14.     {
15.         controls = new InputMaster();
16.  
17.         controls.Player.Move.performed += ctx => move = ctx.ReadValue<Vector2>();
18.         controls.Player.Move.canceled += ctx => move = Vector2.zero;
19.  
20.        
21.     }
22.  
23.    
24.  
25.     void FixedUpdate()
26.     {
27.         Vector3 Move = new Vector3(0.0f, 0.0f, move.y) * Time.deltaTime;
28.         Vector3 Strafe = new Vector3(move.x, 0.0f, 0.0f) * Time.deltaTime;
29.  
30.         transform.Translate(Move, Space.World);
31.  
32.  
33.         if (controls.Player.Strafe.triggered)
34.         {
35.  
36.  
37.             transform.Translate(Strafe, Space.World);
38.             Debug.Log("Straffing");
39.         }
40.  
41.  
42.  
43.  
44.  
45.         //transform.Rotate(Vector3.up, 1f * Time.deltaTime);
46.     }
47.  
48.     void OnEnable()
49.     {
50.         controls.Player.Enable();
51.     }
52.  
53.     void OnDisable()
54.     {
55.         controls.Player.Disable();
56.     }
57.  
58.  
59. }

 

I was trying to do the same thing for a dash, but it wasn't working for me either. The input action seemed to be registering, but it wasn't executing the code.

 

If you're using shift as a modifier, check out the InputSystem documentation, look for something like composite actions with one modifier. It works differently when you use shift as a standalone key or when you intend to use it as a modifier for an action.
