5.1.1

• Updates SDL2 database
• input_tick() can now be called freely in the Begin Step event, as was advised in v4 of Input. Doing so will cancel the automatic update so make sure you call input_tick() every frame in a persistent instance
• Fixes a couple typos in the default icon config
• Adds support for Switch controller on iOS 16
• Adds support for Wii Remote and Wii Classic gamepads on Linux
• Fixes a couple function signatures (thank you @gnysek)
• Fixes crash when INPUT_MULTIPLAYER_LEAVE_VERB is set to undefined
• Fixes input_profile_export() returning an invalid value when opting to export a string
• Works around PlayStation controllers hogging hotswapping due to non-zero values returned by triggers

5.1.0

• Rebuilds __input_config_icons() to use a fluent interface. This works around two particularly nasty bugs in GameMaker that have gone unaddressed for at least 6 weeks (#371 #410) and we got bored of waiting
• Adds imported data verification functions: input_system_verify(), input_player_verify(), and input_profile_verify()
• Fixes empty bindings having no label, leading to invalid return values downstream
• Fixes crash when importing bindings that contain attached gamepad description data

5.0.7

• Adds optional availableOnly argument to input_source_detect_input() to filter input. This argument defaults to true, only allowing input from sources that are not assigned to a player
• Fixes binding scan not waiting for mouse buttons to be released before scanning for input, leading to mouse buttons always being bound
• Adds input_binding_get_source_type() which returns the source type for a binding
• Fixes input_binding_set() crashing when used with custom profiles
