Detailed Description

This class manages joystick input for fixed-wing aircraft and converts it into appropriate control surface movements. It handles various input devices and maps their values to aircraft control ports, providing a bridge between the physical joystick and the aircraft flight model.

References DtVreFwlJoyController().

Member Function Documentation

◆ init()

virtual bool FwlCgfVrf::DtVreFwlJoyController::init ( )

overridevirtual

Initializes the joystick controller.

Returns: True if initialization was successful

Performs initial setup of the joystick controller, including configuration loading and port initialization.

◆ tick()

virtual void FwlCgfVrf::DtVreFwlJoyController::tick ( )

overridevirtual

Performs per-frame processing.

Called once per simulation frame to calculate new control values based on current joystick input and update the output ports.

◆ calcAndSetPortValues()

virtual void FwlCgfVrf::DtVreFwlJoyController::calcAndSetPortValues	(	const DtString &	functionGroup,
		const DtString &	function,
		double	value,
		bool	repeat )

overridevirtual

Calculates and sets port values for a specific joystick function.

Parameters

functionGroup	The function group of the joystick input
function	The specific function within the group
value	The input value from the joystick
repeat	Whether this is a repeated input

Maps joystick inputs to the appropriate aircraft control outputs.

Reimplemented from makVre::DtFixedWingJoyFlightController.

◆ createPorts()

virtual bool FwlCgfVrf::DtVreFwlJoyController::createPorts ( )

overridevirtual

Creates component ports.

Returns: True if port creation was successful

Creates output ports for stick, pedals, throttle, landing gear, flaps, and other aircraft controls.

◆ type()

virtual const char * FwlCgfVrf::DtVreFwlJoyController::type ( ) const

overridevirtual

Gets the component type.

Returns: The type string for this component
