joy_force

Remarks

• The _force vectors (joy_force, key_force, mouse_force) have a limited range and a large 'dead zone', and are mostly used for keyboard-like movement. For the full analog joystick range, use joy_raw.
• If no joystick is found, but a 3D navigation device by 3Dconnexion is detected, the engine gives the startup message "3D navigation device found" and binds it in as a joystick device. In this case joy_force.x is controlled by rolling or spinning the device, and joy_force.y by tilting.

Example:

function ent_rotate()
{	
  while(1)
  {
    my.pan += joy_force.x * time_step;	// horizontal joystick movement changes PAN
	  my.tilt += joy_force.y * time_step;  // vertical joystick movement changes TILT
	  wait(1);
  }	
}
