Defined in: C4Input.h

Prototype

Parameters

value The new control data.

Description

The HandleDirectionalUpdate function is called when a directional pad input control to which the action object is assigned is manipulated by the user. If the user lets go of the directional pad (allowing it to return to the center position), then the value parameter is −1. Otherwise, the value parameter is in the range [0, 7], where 0 corresponds to straight up, and higher values represent directions in 45-degree increments moving clockwise. For instance, 1 corresponds to halfway between right and up, 2 means directly to the right, and 6 means directly to the left.
