Controller Input

If you've got a compiler handy, you can use this C file to determine your controller's config values. Note: Requires SDL headers/libs!

The INI File

From the ini file...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- This is the config file for SDL joystick input.
-- We map joysticks in a somewhat obtuse way in order make Vessel compatible
-- with as many controllers as possible. Here's how it works:
--
-- Let's say I've connected my Classic Controller Pro. Here's what will show up
-- in the terminal output:
-- Gamepad #0: Nintendo Wiimote
-- 	Number of axes: 4
-- 	Number of hats: 1
-- 	Number of buttons: 11
--
-- We bind joystick values from 0 up, and we bind the axes, hats, and buttons
-- in that order.
-- 	1 axis = 1 value. Example: The left thumbstick's x axis is 1 axis.
-- 	1 hat = 4 values: Up, Down, Left, Right in that exact order.
-- 	1 button = 1 value. Yeah.
--
-- So let's look at the Classic Controller again. We have four axes, so we will
-- use 0-3 as our axes keys. We have one hat after that, so values 4-7 will be
-- that hat value's Down, Up, Left and Right keys (the CCP hat is upside down).
-- The buttons will simply be 8-18 after that.
--
-- If you don't want to bind a button value, just use 1337.
--
-- DeadZone is a way to account for possible dead zones in controller axes.
-- The actual axis value (-32768 to 32768) is divided by the DeadZone value.
-- The lower the number, the more amplified the axis motions will be.
--
-- If you want to invert any inputs, add a - sign to the front of the value.
-- For example, to flip an axis that is value 2, set the binding to -2.
--
-- Unfortunately there is an element of trial-and-error due to controllers
-- having no real standard, so you are highly encouraged to share your
-- controller configurations with the community. I recommend making a database
-- at the PCGamingWiki: http://www.pcgamingwiki.com/
--
-- Below is my set of bindings for the Classic Controller Pro, mounted with
-- wminput and using this config:

The bindings that follow are named after the buttons found on the Xbox 360 controller. Simply bind the values described above to the equivalent 360 controller value.

Issues unresolved

Vessels appear empty

This bug only appears in the Linux and OS X versions of the game. The vessels are being filled, but the fluid isn't being displayed.

Multi-monitor issues

The game works without problems in multi-monitor setups, however overviews, for example which reactors have been fixed in factory, will appear severely taller than the screen height.

System requirements

Windows
Minimum
Operating system (OS) XP, Vista, 7
Processor (CPU) Dual Core 2.0 GHz
System memory (RAM)
Hard disk drive (HDD) 1.5 GB
Video card (GPU) ATi Radeon HD 2400 or NVIDIA GeForce 7600 or better (Shader Model 3.0 needs to be supported)
