Joystick

Just out of curiosity, does anyone know if joysticks can be used in Scratch? If so, what is the sensing that should be used for them? Thanks!

Re: Joystick

It's impossible at the moment, but maybe someone could figure out a hack.


I'm taking a break from Scratch until 2.0 comes out. Any messages sent between then and now probably won't be read - sorry.

Re: Joystick

There is a program called joytokey that converts joystick buttons to key presses. If you use it, you can interact with scratch programs using your joystick.

Re: Joystick

There's something called AutoHotKey which can put joysticks on Scratch.
