input.get_vector() not working with array

Question

so far in my game I have used the input.get_vector() method to call for ui to control my character3D. After I expanded my map I needed alternate rooms with different (still) cameras (I have created a function which allows the user to toggle these cameras, in doing so changing the state of an enum to “FORWARDS” , “LEFT” and "RIGHT.)

However, after changing the direction of the camera , the ui controls are now assigned to the wrong keys, as the character is still facing the same direction.

to fix this, i tried to create an array for my ui controls that changes depending on the state of the face_dir variable:

cc… however, the get_vector() method doesn’t seem to accept the array/ seems to only count it as one argumentrather than 4:

If anyone has any fixes or ulterior methods then that would be appreciated

… I could try flipping the character instead, but i just wanted to know if there were any fixes for this/ if its possible to put an array in a method for future use.

Function arguments are not arrays despite the comma, you have to expand your array to produce 4 arguments. You can index each element in the array, or potentially use callv/bindv

var dir := Input.get_vector(ui_controls[0], ui_controls[1], ui_controls[2], ui_controls[3])

Make sure to paste code as text instead of screenshots

Make it easier for new users to format and preview code in their posts

Posting here so to be linked for later use instead of re-typing this every time Make sure you paste scripts instead of screenshots. To properly format pasted code use three ticks ``` at the start and end of your paste like so: ``` # type or paste code here func _ready() -> void:     print("My ready function!") ``` Results in: # type or paste code here func _ready() -> void: print("My ready function!") Press the </> button or ctrl+e in the forum to create these ticks. [2024-09-02…

Try Input.get_vector.callv(ui_controls)
