Class InputDeviceChangedEvent

Published via the Scylla Event eXchange System (SEX) when the most recently used input device changes, for example when a player switches from keyboard to a gamepad mid-session.

Assembly: ScyllaInput.dll
Syntax
public class InputDeviceChangedEvent : ScyllaEvent
Remarks

This event is driven by activity detection, not physical connection changes. It fires whenever the input system observes that a different device produced input more recently than the previously tracked device. It does not fire when a device is merely connected or disconnected without generating input.

Subscribe via ScyllaEvents.Listen<InputDeviceChangedEvent>. For control-scheme-aware reactions (such as updating button-prompt icons), prefer subscribing to ControlSchemeChangedEvent instead, which maps device activity to high-level scheme categories.
