Fine paddle control w/ analog stick

[DrAvedi]

Lovely to have this game on the Pocket!

Was wondering if you could add support for fine control using the analog stick on a modern controller. This would be Dock-specific functionality, since the Pocket only has the dpad and you've already done what you can to give more control over the paddle speed when in handheld mode.

Perhaps this is not possible yet, since I don't see any response from the analog stick when using other cores, and I can't even get the stick to register in the remap menu that launched with the new firmware. Maybe you know of some behind-the-scenes wizardry that would make it work.

Thanks!

The analog stick needs to be specially handled. How do you want it to work? Just amount up/down to determine how fast the paddle moves?

Good suggestion by the way

Thanks for the quick reply.

Yes, you've got the idea. A nudge on the stick would trigger the slowest paddle movement, while a full lean on the stick would trigger max speed paddle movement, with all the gradient speeds in between. This should give a comparable experience to the dials used to control the original game.

If you manage to incorporate this feature, maybe @ericlewis can utilize it with his Super Breakout core also!
