Joystick Support...

Postby linux_man007 » Wed Feb 18, 2004 5:14 pm

Is it possible to add joystick support, while still maintaining cross-platform compatibility?

If so, will you add it in a future release?

May be for desktops, but no in PDAs

:D Yes, joystick/gamepad support is essential! Especially if you use a laptop, you don't want to keep pounding the keys in a game because that will ruin the keyboard and force you to junk the laptop prematurely.

There is quite a difference in how PDA joysticks work?

Yes, the embedded "joysticks" in some PDAs are like directional keys, not real joysticks
