Player Input

The Player Input component is in charge of registering the configuration of every possible input, as well as activating the correct reactions.

If we are not on the prefab, we will get the following message. We simply have to click on Select Prefab, as shown in the following screenshot:

We will find the following properties in this component:

Input Type	This will set the input for playing the game to either Mouse And Keyboard or Controller.
Pause	Each one of these input properties has three sub-properties that we can change in order to configure the user input: Key: Sets the keyboard key that triggers the input event Controller Button: Sets the controller button that triggers the input event Enabled: A checkbox that selects whether the given input is enabled or not
Interact
Melee Attack
Ranged Attack
Jump
Vertical	Each one of these input properties has three sub-properties we can change, in order to configure the user input: Positive: This orients the controller axis to Positive, where horizontal is right and vertical is up Negative: This orients the controller axis to Negative, where horizontal is left and vertical is down Controller Axis: Sets which axis of the Controller will map this input
Horizontal
Persistence Type	This defines the Persistent Type of the given input configuration. We won't need to use this, as we won't be dealing with input configuration saving.

We can try changing the input and make it as we prefer now.
