# Controller - playground for using controllers with Unity

Note: there are bugs in the code - to be fixed!

I am using the project to try out working with controllers with Unity; so far all of the projects that I have worked on used touches on mobile devices or mouse input & keyboard input on desktops.  

Now it is time to try out using controllers.

Initially, I am developing on MacOs with a Xbox controller connected over BlueTooth - woot.

The simple game is using an Action map already provided with some sample code from Unity.

The code will take the direction values from a gamepad or the WASD keys and trigger an event callback.

```

public void OnMove(InputAction.CallbackContext context)

{

	// read the value for the "move" action each event call

	moveAmount = context.ReadValue();

	movementText.text = $"({moveAmount.x.ToString("F2")}, {moveAmount.y.ToString("F2")})";

}

```

The movement callback is associated with a PlayerInput instance in the game scene under "Events" -> "gamePlay".

## Collision detection

- the simple mechanic of the game level is to register a hit of a falling object with the player game object.

- this requires the falling objects to have the 'is trigger' property set to true; we don't need to use physics with the objects bouncing off of each other

- also for collisions to register the player and dropping game objects need colliders & rigid body components

- the score is updated if the tag of the object collided with is "Spawned"

```

/// 

/// Upon collision with another game object, increase the score.

/// 

/// 

private void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other)

{

	// Check for a match with the specific tag on any GameObject that collides with your GameObject

	if (other.gameObject.tag == "Spawned")

	{

		score += 10;

		scoreText.text = $"Score: {score.ToString("D5")}";

		StartConsumeItemSequence(other.gameObject);

	}

}

```
