Hello,

I'm unsure if this is a bug or I'm doing something wrong. This used to work a while back.

Joystick is connected and detected as Index 1, Getting Up/Down/Left/Right values from GetJoystickX/Y work fine.

However using GetRawJoystickButtonPressed/Released/State calls yield a null result for any button pressed.

+ Code Snippet

print ("Joystick X: " + str(GetJoystickX()))
		print ("Joystick Y: " + str(GetJoystickY()))
		
		JoyButtons$="Joystick1 Buttons: "
		for i = 1 to 64
			a = GetRawJoystickButtonPressed(1,i)
			if(a <> 0)
				JoyButtons$ = JoyButtons$ + str(i) + " , "
			endif
		next i
		print (JoyButtons$)

What am I doing fundamentally wrong?

Thank you
