Input¶
Inherits: Object
A singleton for handling inputs.
Description¶
The Input singleton handles key presses, mouse buttons and movement, gamepads, and input actions. Actions and their events can be set in the Input Map tab in Project > Project Settings, or with the InputMap class.
Note: Input's methods reflect the global input state and are not affected by Control.accept_event or Viewport.set_input_as_handled, as those methods only deal with the way input is propagated in the SceneTree.
