N7 version 25.07.13 released (SORRY!) - Marcus - 07-13-2025

Sorry for releasing another version a day after the previous one, but I bought myself a nice gamepad and therefor had to add joystick support Smile

  • Added joystick support through the functions 'joyx', 'joyy' and 'joybutton' (examples/help/joystick.n7)

If anyone has a device with an analogue primary stick, feel free to tell me if it works as expected (by running the example mentioned above).

Thanks Marcus - joystick support will be very useful.......

I still have a joystick that I bought over 15 years ago, and here it is being tested with the latest release of the N7 :

Up,Down.Left,Right = OK
Button 1,2,3,4         = OK

Thanks, Marcus  Smile

Did 'joyx' and 'joyy' react to the digital directional buttons or one of the analogue sticks? If it was an analogue stick, did pushing it just slightly make the square move slower?

I'm using old functions in winapi for this, so it is what it is, but I'm still curious Smile

My old gamepad has digital directional buttons and "thumbsticks" ( I prefer calling them thumbsticks rather than joysticks). Both the buttons and thumbsticks return values of -1,0 and 1 and I don't notice any difference between them - they functions the same way. Maybe the thumbsticks aren't true analog sticks like the ones on standard joysticks....another possibility, there's an "Analog" button (you can see it in the middle, between the thumbsticks) on my old gamepad, but it doesn't work anymore. I think it's broken.

Ah, okay! Yeah, I remember there being an analog on/off button on playstation controllers too Smile I'll ask my son if he has any controllers when he comes home from work.
