Base class of all sort of input event. See Node._input.

Property Descriptions

Setter set_device(value)
Getter get_device()

The event’s device ID.

Method Descriptions

Returns true if the given input event and this input event can be added together (only for events of type InputEventMouseMotion).

The given input event’s position, global position and speed will be copied. The resulting relative is a sum of both events. Both events’ modifiers have to be identical.


Returns a String representation of the event.


Returns a value between 0.0 and 1.0 depending on the given actions’ state. Useful for getting the value of events of type InputEventJoypadMotion.


Returns true if this input event matches a pre-defined action of any type.


Returns true if the given action is being pressed (and is not an echo event for InputEventKey events). Not relevant for events of type InputEventMouseMotion or InputEventScreenDrag.


Returns true if the given action is released (i.e. not pressed). Not relevant for events of type InputEventMouseMotion or InputEventScreenDrag.


  • bool is_action_type ( ) const

Returns true if this input event’s type is one that can be assigned to an input action.


  • bool is_echo ( ) const

Returns true if this input event is an echo event (only for events of type InputEventKey).


  • bool is_pressed ( ) const

Returns true if this input event is pressed. Not relevant for events of type InputEventMouseMotion or InputEventScreenDrag.


Returns true if the given input event is checking for the same key (InputEventKey), button (InputEventJoypadButton) or action (InputEventAction).


Returns a copy of the given input event which has been offset by local_ofs and transformed by xform. Relevant for events of type InputEventMouseButton, InputEventMouseMotion, InputEventScreenTouch, InputEventScreenDrag, InputEventMagnifyGesture and InputEventPanGesture.
