PlanetSide Joystick Support
In an upcoming release, PlanetSide will support joysticks as a control
interface for vehicles and soldiers. Joysticks can have unique control configurations for the different objects
that a player might use, including different types of Vehicles (ground,
hover, flight), soldiers, guided missiles and gunner
weapons.  Joysticks will have configurable properties for
different vehicle types, such as pitch and yaw for air vehicles, aiming the
turret on the Lightning, or strafing for hover vehicles.
These different properties can be configured independently. Each
configuration is visualized by and can be tested using the Response Curve on
the left side of the options UI. These different properties control the
response to different levels of input. There are two axes on the Response Curve, Input and Response. Input is, in
general terms, the position of the joystick within its range of motion.
Response is the onscreen effect of the input. On the Response Curve, you can
see that there is a segment of the line that is straight (Linear) and one
that is curved (Non-Linear). Sensitivity and Curvature control the position
of this point, affecting the joystick's behavior in the game. - Joystick
Sensitivity: This is a control of the joystick's Linear responsiveness to input. The slider controls
the point on the input axis where the joystick becomes more responsive.
Moving this slider will move the curve along the input axis.
- Joystick
Curvature: This is a control of the joystick's Non-linear
responsiveness to input. The slider controls the point on the response
axis where the joystick where the input becomes Non-linear. Moving this
slider will move the curve along the response axis.
- Joystick
Dead Zone: Controls how much play around the center of the joystick
is required before the joystick becomes responsive to input.
- Joystick
Saturation: Controls the joystick range of input motion.
Bringing this slider in will reduce the amount of input required to
reach its full response value.
