Description
-----------

Manages all :ref:`InputEventAction<class_inputeventaction>` which can be created/modified from the project settings menu ``Project > Project Settings > Input Map`` or in code with :ref:`add_action<class_InputMap_add_action>` and :ref:`action_add_event<class_InputMap_action_add_event>`. See :ref:`Node._input<class_Node__input>`.

Member Function Description
---------------------------

.. _class_InputMap_action_add_event:

- void **action_add_event** **(** :ref:`String<class_string>` action, :ref:`InputEvent<class_inputevent>` event **)**

Adds an :ref:`InputEvent<class_inputevent>` to an action. This :ref:`InputEvent<class_inputevent>` will trigger the action.

.. _class_InputMap_action_erase_event:

- void **action_erase_event** **(** :ref:`String<class_string>` action, :ref:`InputEvent<class_inputevent>` event **)**

Removes an :ref:`InputEvent<class_inputevent>` from an action.

.. _class_InputMap_action_erase_events:

- void **action_erase_events** **(** :ref:`String<class_string>` action **)**

.. _class_InputMap_action_has_event:

- :ref:`bool<class_bool>` **action_has_event** **(** :ref:`String<class_string>` action, :ref:`InputEvent<class_inputevent>` event **)**

Returns true if an action has an :ref:`InputEvent<class_inputevent>` associated with it.

.. _class_InputMap_action_set_deadzone:

- void **action_set_deadzone** **(** :ref:`String<class_string>` deadzone, :ref:`float<class_float>` arg1 **)**

.. _class_InputMap_add_action:

- void **add_action** **(** :ref:`String<class_string>` action, :ref:`float<class_float>` deadzone=0.5 **)**

Adds an (empty) action to the ``InputMap``, with a configurable ``deadzone``.

An :ref:`InputEvent<class_inputevent>` can then be added to this action with :ref:`action_add_event<class_InputMap_action_add_event>`.

.. _class_InputMap_erase_action:

- void **erase_action** **(** :ref:`String<class_string>` action **)**

Removes an action from the ``InputMap``.

.. _class_InputMap_event_is_action:

- :ref:`bool<class_bool>` **event_is_action** **(** :ref:`InputEvent<class_inputevent>` event, :ref:`String<class_string>` action **)** const

Returns true if the given event is part of an existing action. This method ignores keyboard modifiers if the given :ref:`InputEvent<class_inputevent>` is not pressed (for proper release detection). See :ref:`action_has_event<class_InputMap_action_has_event>` if you don't want this behavior.

.. _class_InputMap_get_action_list:

- :ref:`Array<class_array>` **get_action_list** **(** :ref:`String<class_string>` action **)**

Returns an array of :ref:`InputEvent<class_inputevent>`\ s associated with a given action.

.. _class_InputMap_get_actions:

- :ref:`Array<class_array>` **get_actions** **(** **)**

Returns an array of all actions in the ``InputMap``.

.. _class_InputMap_has_action:

- :ref:`bool<class_bool>` **has_action** **(** :ref:`String<class_string>` action **)** const

Returns ``true`` if the ``InputMap`` has a registered action with the given name.

.. _class_InputMap_load_from_globals:

- void **load_from_globals** **(** **)**

Clears all :ref:`InputEventAction<class_inputeventaction>` in the ``InputMap`` and load it anew from :ref:`ProjectSettings<class_projectsettings>`.
