Use the getAccelerometer function to get the value from the accelerometer (on the desktop get the joystick axis values).

Declaration:
Code: Select all
Vector getAccelerometer()
The Vector is a struct with the follow members:

x: -1.0 to 1.0
y: -1.0 to 1.0
z: -1.0 to 1.0



Syntax:
Code: Select all
Vector v = getAccelerometer();
x = v.x;

The getaccelerometer function works for my joystick in windows, and doesn't require any translation of the variables like joystickaxis does.
It's easier to be clever than it is to be kind.
