Not everything needs to be a distinct action set though, you can also use action set layers to handle similar modes. For example if you can drive both a car and boat in your game you may want to include one "vehicle" action set with an action set layer of "boat" or "car" on top of it. Action set layers retain any settings of the parent action set and can make understanding and editing configurations more manageable for both your development team and your users. …
