Architect game input — action mapping (abstracting keys into named actions), rebinding with conflict detection and persistence, multi-device support (keyboard, gamepad, touch), analog deadzones, and feel features like input buffering and coyote time, plus accessibility. Engine-neutral. Use when the user mentions input mapping, rebind controls, gamepad support, deadzone, input buffering, coyote time, or accessible controls.

When to use

• Use to design an input layer: actions, bindings, multiple devices, and a
• Use to add analog handling (deadzones, sensitivity) and game-feel features
• Use to make controls accessible (full remapping, hold-vs-toggle, sensitivity,

When not to use

• engine-specific input packages or APIs
• movement or jump physics
• persisting bindings to disk
