All of the buttons on the 360 controller are analog. Is it not possible to retrieve that info?
In other words, you can determine how hard a person is pushing the A button.

| It works pretty well, but there are a few drawbacks: -If you hold down both triggers, the functions ReturnTrigger() and TriggerDown() with both return neutral. -The Right Stick functions don't really work that well. I'm open to suggestions on how to make it work. |

I dunno. I'm just pretty much using the Joy functions in blitz.
I was playing around with the Joy functions and I found out you can test the D-Pad for input, too! Here's the code:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
;DPadDir()
;returns the direction of the d-pad
Function X360_DPadDir(port)
If port=-1 Then
dir=JoyHat()
Else
dir=JoyHat(port)
End If
;check direction
Select dir
Case 0 ;up
Return 1
Case 45 ;up-right
Return 2
Case 90 ;right
Return 3
Case 135 ;down-right
Return 4
Case 180 ;down
Return 5
Case 225 ;down-left
Return 6
Case 270 ;left
Return 7
Case 315 ;up-left
Return 8
Case -1 ;no direction pressed
Return 0
Default ;just in case something goes VERY wrong
Return -1
End Select
End Function
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
;DPadDir()
;returns the direction of the d-pad
Function X360_DPadDir(port)
If port=-1 Then
dir=JoyHat()
Else
dir=JoyHat(port)
End If
;check direction
Select dir
Case 0 ;up
Return 1
Case 45 ;up-right
Return 2
Case 90 ;right
Return 3
Case 135 ;down-right
Return 4
Case 180 ;down
Return 5
Case 225 ;down-left
Return 6
Case 270 ;left
Return 7
Case 315 ;up-left
Return 8
Case -1 ;no direction pressed
Return 0
Default ;just in case something goes VERY wrong
Return -1
End Select
End Function
Nice to see the D-Pad. But, why not just return the 0, 45, 90, etc...
Then your function could Return dir.
And what is dir equal to when you return -1, or have you seen that happen?

I've never seen anything that would make this function return -1; that was just in case anything went very wrong.
Also, I just realized, the RightStickX() and RightStickY() functions work. It's the RightStickXDir() and RightStickYDir() that is the problem.

Probably if someone pushes down three buttons and pops one off, you're still pushing down the buttons, right?
