How to use the rigth stick as the mouse?

Question

Hey there!

I'm trying to add compatibility with controller for my game. So far, everything is fine except one thing? How can I use the right stick as the mouse position?

The aim of my game is controlled with look_at(get_global_mouse_position()) (it's a top-down 2D game) and I would like that the right stick performed the same function.

Thanks in advance!

Did you manage to get it working? I am in the exact same situation and the answer didn't really help me. Thanks.

You can acces the Left Stick direction of joystcik 0 Like that :

var axis = Vector2(Input.get_joy_axis ( 0,JOY_AXIS_0 ), Input.get_joy_axis ( 0,JOY_AXIS_1 ))

axis= (0,1) if at right side
axis=(0,0) if centered
axis=(-1,0) if at left side
axis=(1,1) if at top right corner
etc ...
see : https://docs.godotengine.org/en/3.0/classes/class_input.html?highlight=input#class-input-get-joy-axis

Warning : axis will never be equal to (0,0) or (1,1) or (-1,-1) because of the physical stick that is never really centered or at the end of bounds. so you need tocheck for a minimal diferrence
