Hi

Does anyone know if there will ever be support for assigning different buttons on a joystick? Maybe there's a hack, or maybe there's already something.

Thanks!

I'm almost positive you can already use a Joystick in Celestia, however, I myself am not entirely sure HOW you do it. Its apparently built into it, but maybe you have to calibrate your joystick or something. I dont know much about the techinical side of Celestia.

Unfortunately, the joystick button assignments are "hardwired" in Celestia's source code. It would be nice if they could be reassigned easily, but currently that requires editing and recompiling the code.

Sorry.
