Would this work with a steering wheel? :raise:
Woah. I LIKE this.
I still doubt flight with thrusters will work, even if I'm flipping my joystick all over the place like a kid with chronic masturbation problems.
[QUOTE=Blah360;17819590]Would this work with a steering wheel? :raise:[/QUOTE] Of course, it is a DirectInput module. [QUOTE=Snake31;17821798]I still doubt flight with thrusters will work, even if I'm flipping my joystick all over the place like a kid with chronic masturbation problems.[/QUOTE] Joystick Module is compatible with Wire, so you can make automatic correctional thrusts.
[QUOTE=Snake31;17821798]I still doubt flight with thrusters will work, even if I'm flipping my joystick all over the place like a kid with chronic masturbation problems.[/QUOTE] I've used it with thruster powered aircraft before, worked like a charm.
Oh, awesome. Is it clientside?
[QUOTE=DementNeo;17824396]Oh, awesome. Is it clientside?[/QUOTE] Read the news. It requiers a serverside module to work!
That's a shame. [editline]12:28PM[/editline] I won't pretend it affects me though. I'm a single player man :smug:
If someone wanted, he/she could write a 100% clientside module that translates joystick inputs to numpad inputs. It would be pretty easy, in fact.
[QUOTE=Night-Eagle;17828195]If someone wanted, he/she could write a 100% clientside module that translates joystick inputs to numpad inputs. It would be pretty easy, in fact.[/QUOTE] I thought this already did that? Maybe I had a different joystick addon then...
This only includes a module for interfacing with Wire. Joystick Module is principally for developers, but I wanted players to adopt it early to encourage developers to use it...so, I coded an interface for Wire. In retrospect, I should have probably split it into two addons...but the module [i]is[/i] built to support multiple interfaces. This means that a gamemode or other addon could plug into it very easily. For the layman: Someone else [i]can[/i] create an extension, such as a numpad input extension, without coordinating with me or changing my code. The new extension could be 100% clientside, requiring no updates to the server.
To find servers with this addon installed, simply search for the tag "joystick_v25".
I was just thinking about this addon the other day when I was looking over my addons. I was to lazy to search for it. Now that garry has plopped it out here, I'll just grab it. Thanks, I loved this addon when I had it installed on my other computer, and now I have it again. I remember having a little bit of a problem with it, I wonder if the bugs are all cleared up (I don't remember what the bugs were exactly).
Awesome, also works with PS3 controller, i love you
