205F: The Rebind Protocol

Pilot Record
Student Profile
"Left-handed pilots exist. If you cannot redefine "Jump" to a different button, your flight system is flawed. A Pilot uses the Rebinding API to allow runtime customization of the avionics."

The Concept: Interactive Rebinding

The ability to overwrite bindings at runtime.

* **PerformInteractiveRebinding:** The function that listens for the next key press.
* **Overrides:** Modifications saved to JSON, not the asset itself.
* **Exclusions:** Preventing the user from binding "Pause" to "Mouse Move."
Red Flag Detected

The AI Trap: "The Input Manager Menu"

You ask the AI: "Let the player change keys."

// AI-Generated Code: The Old Launcher
// "Use the Unity Launch Dialog."
// Audit Fail: That dialog was removed years ago.
// Or: Manually mapping KeyCodes in a Dictionary.

This is "Legacy Reliance." Modern games need in-game menus, not external launchers.

Elite Telemetry

Research shows "Elite" teams achieve 15% faster lead times by keeping AI on a "very tight leash."

  • Small Batches Solving one problem at a time prevents logic drift.
  • Modular Design Localizing the "blast radius" of AI changes.
  • Tight Loops Rapid iteration with constant code review.

The Pilot's Correction

Corrective Protocol
// Corrected: Professional Binding
action.PerformInteractiveRebinding()
    .WithControlsExcluding("Mouse")
    .OnComplete(callback)
    .Start();
Your Pilot Command
> A skilled Pilot directs the AI to use the API. You command: "Start an interactive rebind operation on the Action, excluding the Mouse axes, and save the result."
