Description
Key codes returned by Event.keyCode. These map directly to a physical key on the keyboard.
Key codes can be used to detect key down and key up events, using Input.GetKeyDown and Input.GetKeyUp:
Keyboard events can also be captured within OnGUI :
For joystick and gamepad button presses, consider using Input.GetButtonDown and Input.GetButtonUp instead of the KeyCode. These methods allow you check input state using a descriptive action string, e.g. «fire» or «jump», instead of the hardwre button number.
The Input pages provide details about accessing keyboard, mouse and joystick input.
