Ness	I'm trying to unpress a joystick button without using the b1, b2, b3 keys. Problem is when I put 'joy.button[0] = 0;' verge gives me a Unknown HVAR1 error. Is the joy.button array read only? Posted on 2005-01-15 14:42:20
RageCage	It would appear so, but why would you need to? No one should be using joy sticks anyway ^_- Posted on 2005-01-16 10:41:08
Omni	Maybe you should write your own joystick input wrapper. Psuedo-code void UnpressJoy() must_unpress = 1 void GetButton() if must_unpress = 1 if button_pressed return 0 if button_pressed = 0 must_unpress = 0 return 0 if button_pressed return 1 if button_pressed = 0 return 0 Something like that. That way you don't ever have to really alter the Joystick variable, just check if the button is pressed, and then set your own unpress variable.

mcgrue	I have a little keyboard/joystick interface library that's in need of some spit and polish that does precisely this. Wooly's War of Fire demo used a specialized version of the lib that I custom tailored in a rush (mainly because I wanted to play it on my SNES controller). Posted on 2005-02-09 14:57:45
Ness	Actually I took Omni's idea and ran with it. (Nerdy Aura) I can check the value of a keyboard buton and a joystick button at the same time using a single define! I did all this because the style of game I'm making tends to need more then 4 buttons, and I wanted to play on my PSX pad. Posted on 2005-02-09 15:30:04
