Hi, every one.
I like to play joystick, and I find the lib TLbind will be useful. But I can't download it from the official link.
The browser give me a error message "The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading."
I guess maybe I'm behind G_ F_W (super_big_firewall) something.
And search wiki and forum, I want to get it from smrq's demo .

But I seen the advice, must use TLbind v1.1

Can someone kind to put TLbind.lua(v1.1) in this forum like a .love demo?
(The most .love in the forum I can download them but old one(s) )

Or put it to github , post here a link? (That also can be download too)

Thanks a lot .

Here it is

Thank you very much.
I have test it by smrq's demo, love2d V0.7.2 is ok
(Willbe)V0.8.0 (hg clone from bitbucket.org) is fail, but after modify main.lua (smrq's demo)
it will run almost ok , still has some place will be adjust.
The point is

Code: Select all

--change this line 
players[2].controlOptions, players[2].control = makeJoystickControls(0)  --  for love 0.7.x
--to
players[2].controlOptions, players[2].control = makeJoystickControls(1)  -- for  love 0.8

BTW:
That two place I have found TLbind.lua is v1.07 , but still good for my test
https://gist.github.com/1744602 ( smrq's demo , a good sample for joystick coding)

justas_tomkus 's code( TLbind.lua is the same: v1.07)

how to bind left mouse button?

Posted: **Thu Mar 08, 2012 4:20 am**

Wanted to give my thanks for making this.
It is sweet. And so easy to port to 0.8.0

I'd like to know if there is a way to go from action to key.

Code: Select all

print("Press " .. tlbind.controls.Bomb .. " to drop a bomb.")

would output

Code: Select all

>>Press X to drop a bomb.

(joystick)
or

Code: Select all

>>Press Space to drop a bomb.

(keyboard)

EDIT:
I wrote a quick table reverser and key parser. All is dandy. https://gist.github.com/1999019

Hey, how would I do to aim where I point the joystick?
Currently I'm doing this:

Code: Select all

shape:setRotation(math.atan2(player.control["VerticalAim"], player.control["HorisontalAim"]))

Which is working, but everytime I release the joystick the character is aiming towards the right instantly, also this code seems to produce "corners".

Well, when you release the joystick the angle becomes 0, which is to the right. You should probably check whether the values are not (close to) 0.

Thanks bartbes, that did fix the auto aiming to right thingy, also noticed that the "corner" problems was due to the TLbind.deadzone setting. Changed the deadzone to 0 and now it works good enough, although the aiming still got "corners" but they are barely noticeable.

any plans to support multiple controls per button?

[' ']={"jump","airJump"} or (for joysticks)
[1]={"jump","airJump"}

and any plans to add left and right mouse button?

thanks!

Hi I'm trying to make a prototype shooter game , as my first project as I'm still learning programming in general. I found TLbind library on the love2d wiki and tried implementing it into my project but for some reason I can't get it to work for me if you find the time could you explain what i'm doing wrong in my project?

I was also trying to figure out how to use the love.joyStick but it it seems confusing does anyone here know how to use the love.joyStick api

this is how I tried using it but it was a no go for me

Code: Select all


if love.joystick.isDown( joystick, 1 ) then
       player.body:applyForce(10, 0.0)
	   print("moving right")
    elseif love.joystick.isDown( joystick, -1 ) then
        player.body:applyForce(-10, 0.0)
		print("moving left")
    end
    if love.joystick.isDown( joystick, 2 ) then
        player.body:applyForce(0, -500)
    elseif love.joystick.isDown( joystick, -2 ) then
       player.body:applyForce(0, 100)
    end	
	
	as I did with love.keyboard.isDown which worked 


 if love.keyboard.isDown("right") then
       player.body:applyForce(10, 0.0)
	   print("moving right")
    elseif love.keyboard.isDown("left") then
        player.body:applyForce(-10, 0.0)
		print("moving left")
    end
    if love.keyboard.isDown("up") then
        player.body:applyForce(0, -500)
    elseif love.keyboard.isDown("down") then
       player.body:applyForce(0, 100)
    end
