Player Input Class

The per-player input manager. Get one for a player with 'GetPlayerInput', then use it to: Turn input mappings on or off for that player with 'AddInputMapping' / 'RemoveInputMapping'. Get the 'input_events' object for an 'input_action' with 'GetInputEvents', and subscribe to its events to react to that input. An input_action only generates events for a player while at least one input_mapping that references it is active on that player.
