Can't find "Get Axis" Action
« on: May 08, 2025, 05:49:35 PM »
I'm trying to set up x-axis movement of a 2d bock by using the get axis action like a tutorial told me to do, but when I type that name into the action browser it doesn't come up for me. I tried reinstalling playmaker to make sure I had everything but it's still not working. Can someone please help?

What version of Unity and Playmaker are you using? Because I think it’s likely that you’re using a newer version, while the tutorial is based on an older version, and maybe the action name has been changed or moved to a different group. Have you checked Unity’s new “Input System”?

Your project might be setup to only use the new Input System. In that case you won't see actions for the old input system.

You can enable both input systems by setting “Active Input Handling” to “Both” in the Player Settings. Then you should see the actions to follow along with tutorials.
