Joystick Navigation

[Vinicius Lima]

Hi,

is that the way I'm supposed to do it?

import viz
import vizjoy
viz.go()

#Add a ground model
viz.add('tut_ground.wrl')

#Add a joystick
joy = vizjoy.add()

def UpdateJoystick():
#Get the joystick position
x,y,z = joy.getPosition()
#Get the twist of the joystick
twist = joy.getTwist()
#Move the viewpoint forward/backward based on y-axis value
if abs(y) > 0.2: #Make sure value is above a certain threshold
viz.MainView.move(0,0,-y*0.1,viz.BODY_ORI)
#Move the viewpoint left/right based on x-axis value
if abs(x) > 0.2: #Make sure value is above a certain threshold
viz.MainView.move(x*0.1,0,0,viz.BODY_ORI)
#Turn the viewpoint left/right based on twist value
if abs(twist) > 0.2: #Make sure value is above a certain threshold
viz.MainView.rotate(0,1,0,twist,viz.BODY_ORI,viz.R ELATIVE_WORLD)

#UpdateJoystick every frame
vizact.ontimer(0,UpdateJoystick)

#Register a callback for joystick button events
def onjoybutton(e):
print 'Joystick button',e.button,'pressed'
viz.callback(vizjoy.BUTTONDOWN_EVENT,onjoybutton)

No, you need to copy the code from Vizard then paste it into the form inside the code tags. The reason this is necessary is because it will preserve the original indentation of your code. Without the indentation, I cannot run your code.
