# Input Icon Mapping

The `InputIconMapper` in `input_options_menu.tscn` is a generalized tool meant to be broadly compatible with freely licensed icon asset packs. Instructions on how to use it with a few of these packs are provided, with links to download them from their creator's page.

## Kenney Input Prompts

### Automatic

With the project open, select `Project > Tools > Install Input Icons for Maaack's Game Template`.

Select a style and then wait for the icons to download, extract, and setup.

### Manual

Available from [kenney.nl](https://kenney.nl/assets/input-prompts) and [itch.io](https://kenney-assets.itch.io/input-prompts).

This pack is organized by `Device/IconType`. The `IconTypes` for each device are just `Default`, `Vector`, or `Double`. These instructions will assume using `Default`. In the inspector of `InputIconMapper`, set the `directories` to include the subdirectories of the asset pack.  
* `.../kenney_input-prompts/Keyboard & Mouse/Default`  
* `.../kenney_input-prompts/Generic/Default`  
* `.../kenney_input-prompts/Xbox Series/Default`  
* `.../kenney_input-prompts/PlayStation Series/Default`  
* `.../kenney_input-prompts/Nintendo Switch/Default`  
* `.../kenney_input-prompts/Steam Deck/Default`  

Set `filtered_strings` to:
* `keyboard`
* `color`
* `button`
* `arrow`

Set `replace_strings` with the key pairs:  
* `"Capslock": "Caps Lock"`  
* `"Generic Stick": "Generic Left Stick"`  
* `"Guide": "Home"`  
* `"Slash Back": "Back Slash"`  
* `"Slash Forward": "Slash"`  
* `"Stick L": "Left Stick"`  
* `"Stick R": "Right Stick"`  
* `"Trigger L 1": "Left Shoulder"`  
* `"Trigger L 2": "Left Trigger"`  
* `"Trigger R 1": "Right Shoulder"`  
* `"Trigger R 2": "Right Trigger"`  

#### Filled Icons
![Kenney Filled Icons](../media/screenshot-5-kenney-2.png)
Under the `FileLister` properties of the `InputIconMapper`, expand the `Constraints` and `Advanced Search` tabs. Set `ends_with=".png"` and `not_ends_with="outline.png"`.

Press `Refresh Files`.

If you want to use colored icons, in `prioritized_strings` add `color`. Otherwise set `filter="color"`.  

Press `Match Icons to Inputs`.  

Validate the results by inspecting the `matching_icons` dictionary.

#### Outlined Icons
![Kenney Outlined Icons](../media/screenshot-5-kenney-4.png)
Not all icons have outlined versions, so we will end up including the filled icons as fallback, and prioritizing outlined.

Under the `FileLister` properties of  the `InputIconMapper`, expand the `Constraints` and `Advanced Search` export groups. Set `ends_with=".png"`. 

Press `Refresh Files`. 

Add to `filtered_strings`:
* `outline`

In `prioritized_strings` add `outline`. If you want to use colored icons, in `prioritized_strings` add `color`, too. Otherwise set `filter="color"`.  

Press `Match Icons to Inputs`.  

Validate the results by inspecting the `matching_icons` dictionary.
