What is the correct way to get player's input event? (timeline skip)

[anisimov]

Hi,

I have a custom script that controls the timeline. It is activated using the 'Interact' ability. Before starting the timeline, I use the "OnEnableGameplayInput" event to disable PlayerInput.

What I want to achieve is skipping the timeline. What would be the best/correct way to receive a "Button pressed" event if PlayerInput is disabled?

Or perhaps use a completely different approach, instead of disabling PlayerInput, create a new ability and deactivate all other abilities? Would it be good to add to all abilities a condition for the new ability in ShudBlockAbilityStart and ShouldStopActiveAbility?

Thank you.

In this situation you could monitor the input within your custom script. That way the OnEnableGameplayInput event doesn't affect the input handing within your own script.
