Input System (New) -- Correctness Patterns

Prerequisite skills: unity-input (Input System API, actions, bindings, PlayerInput component)

These patterns target the most common Input System bugs: wrong reading method for the action type, mixing old/new APIs, losing rebindings, and mishandling multiplayer device assignment.

PATTERN: Reading Input -- triggered vs IsPressed vs WasPressedThisFrame

WHEN: Reading button/action state at runtime

WRONG (Claude default):

// Using .triggered for continuous input (only fires once per press)
if (fireAction.triggered)
    rb.AddForce(Vector3.forward * force); // Only fires one frame, not while held
