Overview

The Side Scrolling Runner sample only uses Quantum's Input struct for all of its input, so there were no Commands used in this sample.

Unity

Find the simple input polling in LocalInput.cs, where it uses Unity's Input API.
The game controls are defined as follow:

  • Press Space Bar to perform a short jump;
  • Press and hold Space Bar to perform a long jump;
  • Press Left Shift to use gadgets.

Quantum

There are three booleans in the Input struct which are packed into a single byte:

  • JumpStart;
  • JumpHold;
  • Attack.

The input is processed using the helper structs MovementDesires and GadgetDesires. Desires are filled based on the player’s input polled from Unity; they could also be replaced by generated Input for AI (not implemented in this sample).
