I genuinely think this is the easiest way to work with the new input system in Unity. It works with a scriptable object you reference wherever you need to react to player input. In contrast to the old input system, you won't have to cram everything into update, but instead this works with event based architecture. Give this a try if you struggled with setting up the new input system, I am sure you'll enjoy it! πŸ“– Chapters I wrote the book on TextMesh Pro!
