1. Makes START a modifier key.
2. Main modifier actions are now displayed as hints while the modifier is pressed.
3. Mouse simulation now available on all controllers:
SELECT + D-Pad to move mouse
SELECT + Left/Right should button to click
START + | Action
---------- | ------
SELECT | Menu
UP | Menu
DOWN | Map
LEFT | Character info
RIGHT | Inventory
B (Bottom) | Spell book
Y (Left) | Quest log
This makes all actions available on controllers without sticks and ZL/ZR.
The emulated mouse and map move at a consistent speed independant of
frame rate.
The map can now be scrolled at variable speeds and diagonally.
Mouse is now confined to the window.
This gives between 2x-10x performance improvment to mele only player
auto aim performance. Further improvments could be made by ordering
enemies by minimal distance and doing a continue in while ((next_node =
GetNextPath())) if maxDistance is exceeded.
- Access and detect all parts of large objects
- Prioritize targets based on orientation
- Accurate prioritize the closest enemy when using mele only
- Multiple corrections to target selection logic
- Fix double events
- Fix ignored events
- Allow moving diagonal in the inventory
- Fix mouse wobbling in inventory when scalling
- Make controler actions cursor independants
- Make sure secoundery and primery key doesn't fire each others events
- Highlight both primary and secondary target
- Automatic switch between controller and keyboard+mouse
- Allow the user to change facing direction when blocked
- Make code event based instead of relying on time outs
Initial game controller support.
Actions are based on the Switch branch but the controller code itself is
implemented differently, allowing for easy remapping and minimizing
changes to the Source/ directory.
Many subtle and not so subtle controller bugs have been fixed
in this implementation, including:
1. Smoother & more responsive movement with the joysticks.
2. Consistent controls for all the menus in the game (stores, quest log,
etc).
3. Cursor appearance / disappearance at appropriate times.
Low-level controls are abstracted and 3 SDL interfaces are supported:
game controller, joystick, and keyboard. See SourceX/controls/ for more
details on this.
Wishlist for the future:
1. Primary button and use button should attack continously.
This is hard as it requires checking the cooldowns / attack speed.
2. Quick spell menu navigation is very buggy. It is also buggy in the
switch branch. I haven't had a change to investigate.
- Hide cursor on joystick move, show cursor on mouse move.
- Auto aim at closest monsters, objs or items.
- Inventory grid snap navigation
- Speed spell grid snap navigation
- Char stat snaps navigation
- Town portal auto casts if using a controller
- Can now identify and repair items via controller
- Can dropping items in inventory via controller
