Why does PerformInteractiveRebinding cancel immediately?

Mouse delta movement triggers binding completion. Add WithControlsExcluding('Mouse/delta') and 'Mouse/position' so jitter doesn't end the rebind.

Disable the action being rebound?

Yes — action.Disable() before Start, action.Enable() after OnComplete. Otherwise the input you press triggers the action and the rebind.

WithCancelingThrough('keyboard/escape') gives the user an explicit escape. Combine with timeout and a UI prompt for best UX.

Fix: Input System Rebind Cancelled Immediately

Quick answer: Action.Disable before rebind. WithControlsExcluding mouse delta/position. WithCancelingThrough escape.

Player clicks Rebind Jump. Rebind completes instantly with mouse-position binding. Mouse jitter qualifies as input.

The Fix

action.Disable();
var op = action
    .PerformInteractiveRebinding(bindingIndex)
    .WithControlsExcluding("<Mouse>/position")
    .WithControlsExcluding("<Mouse>/delta")
    .WithCancelingThrough("<Keyboard>/escape")
    .OnComplete(_ => { action.Enable(); UpdateUI(); })
    .OnCancel(_ => { action.Enable(); ShowMsg("cancelled"); })
    .Start();

Excludes mouse jitter. Disables action so the input being rebound doesn't trigger gameplay. Cancel via Escape gives clean UX.

Verifying

Click Rebind, press a key, binding updates. Without exclude: rebind ends instantly with mouse delta capture.

“Exclude mouse. Cancel via Esc. Rebind clean.”
