Hey so I've come across another weird problem, well a few, but I think this is causing quite a bit of grief for me.
For some reason my Abilities (use, toggle equip, equip next/previous) are not responding when I change the input name. So for example my "UseSlot1" ability will have the Input Name as "Fire1" and work perfectly fine. Then if I change the input to another key ( I have the input set up in project settings ) it just will not work at all, it won't even try to start the ability. I even created a script that just checks for the exact input ( by name just as in the Ability Input Field ) and logs a console message every time it sees the input and its showing up in the console every time I press the key.
So since it works perfectly fine with "Fire1" input but nothing else, I think the abilities and weapons are set up right, there just must be something with the Ability or input?? So that's my first problem, I would like to use the abilities with any input I choose or at least have a few other options.
I think my second question might be related, but It could also just be that I was just having trouble with everything at the same time.
My second question is about the error "Use Ability Does Not Listen To Slot3". I have slot 0, 1, and 2 set up and they are responding to what I need. But I created a slot 3 and did everything the same as when I made slot2 and I get this error. I created an object on my player that has an item slot Id script set to 3, I have a UseSlot3 ability and my item sets are showing slots 0-3 ( so four slots ). So I went into the script that the error came from and I saw that the script only allows for up to slot2.
So what I did...and I'm not even sure if this was correct or not, is I went into the "Use" script that the error came from and changed the Else If statements and events to include "StartItemUseSlot3" and set all of the functions/events to use a slot3, and then created the ItemUseSlot3, ItemUseCompleteSlot3 functions etc....
Changing the script got rid of the errors so that made me think I changed the scripts properly, but then the ability would not respond to the input or start at all. I no longer get "Use does not listen to slot 3" errors or any errors from the script I modified.
So I'm not sure if this is 2 problems or one problem showing in a few places. Maybe there are more places I would need to modify the scripts in order to have the Use ability find slot3, but I figured I'd be getting errors if there were.
