Update inputs to use the Unreal Input Mapping Project Settings. #4489

niwc-jamelc · 2022-04-19T19:36:43Z

Update inputs in cpp and blueprints to use the Unreal Input Mapping Project Settings.
Add function to dynamically change the Keyboard Shortcut Help Text when user changes a default hotkey.
Add function to allow user to make their own shortcut text for UI text elements. Keyboard Shortcut Text is set during Event Construct in corresponding UMG Widget Blueprints
Simplified or changed some of the descriptors for inputs in Help Text.
Remapped default input for Toggle Help Text UI from F1 to F9, so users no longer toggle the wireframe view.
Updated documentation with change for Help Text UI.
Update Manual Camera Controller. Remove old movement functions. Add new movement functions. Fix inconsistent movement speed.
Fix mislabeling of front and backup cameras for Car Pawn.

About

Some users want to take advantage of Unreal's built in Input Settings. This branch modifies the appropriate cpp classes in the Unreal AirSim Plugin to allow this functionality.

How Has This Been Tested?

Tested default keybindings for default keys.
Tested modifying keybindings
Tested keyboard and gamepad keybindings
Tested for both cpp and blueprints.

Screenshots (if appropriate):

…ovement issue with Manual Camera. Add functions to dynamically change keyboard shortcut help text.

…mentation to reflect change to default Help Text Shortcut.

@jonyMarino Can I get some assistance as to why the microsoft.AirSim (AirSimCI Ubuntu_1804) check is failing? I was able to package a Linux build on Windows using the Windows-Linux cross-compilation.

Hi @niwc-jamelc, thank you for submitting this PR! The microsoft.AirSim (AirSimCI Ubuntu_1804) check is failing due to a packaging error, see the log below for the specific error it's failing on:

@zimmy87 Thank you for providing the build logs. In the meantime I installed ue 4.25.4 on linux and attempted to compile and package my airsim fork on linux. It was able to package successfully without errors.

I will take a look at the build errors, but from a glance, it looks like it's throwing errors about source files that were not changed in my fork.

@zimmy87 It appears I fixed the build errors in my pull request. There were some #includes missing for some Unreal classes used in the AirSim TextureShuffleActor class.
