Triple axis not being mapped correctly from keyboard dpad 3d

MacOS 15

What you did

Add a triple axis to an InputMap

im.insert_triple_axis(DebugActions::Move, KeyboardVirtualDPad3D::new(
	KeyCode::KeyE, // Up
	KeyCode::KeyQ, // Down
	KeyCode::KeyA, // Left
	KeyCode::KeyD, // Right
	KeyCode::KeyW, // Forward
	KeyCode::KeyS, // Backward
));

What you expected to happen

Values recieved from clamped_axis_triple should correctly map keys to floats. E.g:

• 'A' = vec3(-1.0, 0.0, 0.0)
• 'E' = vec3(0.0, 1.0, 0.0)
• 'W' = vec3(0.0, 0.0, 1.0)

What actually happened

The Y axis is mapped correctly, but the X is mapped to both X and Z and the Z inputs are ignored entirely. So:

• 'A' = vec3(-1.0, 0.0, -1.0)
• 'E' = vec3(0.0, 1.0, 0.0)
• 'W' = vec3(0.0, 0.0, 0.0)

Oops, that was a bug. I fixed it in pull request #623

Should we release a 0.15.2 patch to include this?

[Shute052]

And forward is the negative direction of the Z-axis in Bevy, so it should be 'W' = vec3(0.0, 0.0, -1.0)

Thanks, @Shute052!

Just tried out the main branch and it works 👍

IMO we're close to a 0.16 launch for the new Bevy version: let's do that instead.
