Actors tend to be pretty boring when you can't control them. To aid in mapping events to inputs, we can make use of the following three systems:

IHardwareMouse |
Used when there is a need for getting mouse events directly, such as x/y screen position and mousewheel delta. |

Used to listen to raw input events, for example, to detect when the Space bar was pressed or released. It is not recommended to use raw input except for rare edge cases such as chat and text input, instead action maps are preferable. |
