Input.parse_input_event does not work in version 4.2.1 #87692
Description
Tested versions
It worked in version 4.1.1, but in version 4.2.1 it does not work
System information
Window 10 - Godot v4.2.1 - Mobile
Issue description
Input.parse_input_event does not work in version 4.2.1, but it does work in version 4.1.1
Here I have a godot project that when pressing the button should execute the action 'ui_left'
It works perfectly in godot 4.1.1 but when I try to use it in godot 4.2.1 it doesn't work
Try to use Input.action_press() but it doesn't give the desired results as this method keeps running infinitely
Code
extends Node2D
@export var input_pressed:String = ''
func _process(delta: float) -> void:
if Input.is_action_pressed("ui_left", true):
print('The button left is being pressed')
pass
func _on_button_button_down() -> void:
# This way works correctly in godot 4.1.1, but in godot 4.2.1 it doesn't work
input_parse_input_event(true)
# If I use this way, is_action_pressed is still executed even if I change the value of 'pressed' to false
#input_action_press(true)
pass
func _on_button_button_up() -> void:
# This way works correctly in godot 4.1.1, but in godot 4.2.1 it doesn't work
input_parse_input_event(false)
# If I use this way, is_action_pressed is still executed even if I change the value of 'pressed' to false
#input_action_press(false)
pass
func input_parse_input_event(is_pressed=true):
var e = InputEventAction.new()
e.action = input_pressed
e.pressed = is_pressed
Input.parse_input_event(e)
print(e)
pass
func input_action_press(is_pressed=true):
var e = InputEventAction.new()
e.action = input_pressed
e.pressed = is_pressed
Input.action_press(e.action)
print(e)
pass
Don't forget to add ui_left in the editor variable if you use this code
