Hi all,

I am having some trouble storing my GetVirtualJoystickX() to a variable.



I have no problem storing the Y vector, but for some reason the X won't store any of the negative values -- only the positive ones. This makes it so my sprite can only shoot forward haha. I've looked around the forums and tried messing around with the angles, but I feel like the problem is in the storing of the value.

Nevermind, I figured it out and I am stupid. Can I get this topic closed?

The usual "closure" to a thread is to post the answer, so that others can search and learn in the future.

There is no such thing as stupid, we all have mental blocks from time to time

Haha well, my IF statement had a condition for GetVirtualJoystickX() > 0, which means it didn't enter the loop for anything < 0. I blame it on the lack of sleep haha. AppGameKit is too addicting!
