I already mentioned a few cases where this may become handy, like a konami cheat code, fighting games, DMC clones, rythm games, smash clones, metroidvanias, action rpgs.Įven FPS could use an input command for things like dash or cover.Įven GTA had some kind of cheat because 'proposal for it to be core' means that feature would have to be ALWAYS present in the engine, and because of this, maintained FOREVER by core devs, while only a handful of projects will actually use it. Since a majority of games won't need this, this can likely be provided as an asset on the Asset Library slightly_smiling_face Is not such a trivial solution, specialy for guys who may be more on the art side than programming side, like me.

Is there a reason why this should be core and not an add-on in the asset library?: Sure, but making a good input buffer is not a trivial solution, my code while it works, is buggy and I think having a basic Input buffer supported by the engine would be good for action games, maybe devs who want a cheat code, fighting games, metroidvanias, action rpgs, etc. If this enhancement will not be used often, can it be worked around with a few lines of script?:

Show a mock up screenshots/video or a flow diagram explaining how your proposal will work:ĭescribe implementation detail for your proposal (in code), if possible:īasically a circular list that reads the inputs and output a signal if a certain movement is input. It would make my life easier, implementing an input buffer for my game. Describe how this feature / enhancement will help your project:
