Question by chris_sarama · Aug 11, 2017 at 06:53 AM · inputkeyboardkeykeyscombo

Specific key combination not working

I'm having a problem with input. There are two specific key combinations that will not work.

I'm using the keys q and e to turn my character , w and s to move back and forward , a and d to strafe , and space to jump.

Whenever I'm holding w and e (moving forward to the left) or holding s and d (backwards and left) if I try to press space to jump nothing happens. I can press space to jump with any other key combination. It's only these two combinations.

I put together the simplest test scenario possible and confirmed the combo does not work. Here is the test script

 using System.Collections;
 using System.Collections.Generic;
 using UnityEngine;
 
 public class inputtest : MonoBehaviour {
 
     // Use this for initialization
     void Start () {
         
     }
     
     // Update is called once per frame
     void Update () {
 
         if (Input.GetKeyDown ("w")) {
             Debug.Log ("w");
         }
 
         if (Input.GetKeyDown ("e")) {
             Debug.Log ("e");
         }
 
         if (Input.GetButtonDown ("jump")) {
             Debug.Log ("jump");
         }
 
     }
 }

hold w and e then press space and the debug for jump won't print. It will print with every other combination.

Is this only a issue with your code or in general, independently where you try to use it ?

It could be that it's a hardware limitation https://superuser.com/questions/73685/keyboard-doesnt-let-me-press-certain-keys-at-the-same-time
