Syntax
public class InputDeviceConnectedEvent : ScyllaEvent
Remarks

This event is fired once per physical device connection. It provides the raw Unity UnityEngine.InputSystem.InputDevice reference along with the Scylla-classified InputDeviceType and the Unity-assigned device ID for scenarios where callers need to track specific device instances across connect/disconnect cycles. Subscribe via ScyllaEvents.Listen<InputDeviceConnectedEvent>.

Properties

Device

Gets or sets the Unity Input System device object that was connected. This reference is valid for the lifetime of the connection; it becomes stale after the corresponding InputDeviceDisconnectedEvent is published.

Declaration
public InputDevice Device { get; set; }
Property Value
Type Description
InputDevice

DeviceID

Gets or sets the unique integer ID assigned to this device by Unity's Input System (InputDevice.deviceId). This ID is stable for the duration of the connection and can be used to correlate this event with a future InputDeviceDisconnectedEvent for the same physical device.

Declaration
public int DeviceID { get; set; }
Property Value
Type Description
int

DeviceType

Gets or sets the Scylla-classified type category of the connected device, such as Keyboard, Gamepad, or Mouse. Use this instead of inspecting Device directly when only the device category is needed.
