Member Function Documentation

◆ type()

virtual const char * makVre::DtBallisticGunJoyController::type ( ) const

overridevirtual

Gets the type identifier for this component.

Returns: String identifying the component type (DtBallisticGunJoyControllerType)

Implements the DtSimComponent::type() method to return the type identifier for this component.

Reimplemented in makVre::DtVreBallisticGunJoyController.

◆ createActiveJoystickPort()

virtual bool makVre::DtBallisticGunJoyController::createActiveJoystickPort ( )

virtual

Creates the joystick active state output port.

Returns: True if port was created successfully, false otherwise

Creates the output port used to indicate when joystick control is active. This is called during initialization to set up communication with the actuator.

◆ activeJoystickPort()

virtual DtBooleanOutputPort * makVre::DtBallisticGunJoyController::activeJoystickPort ( ) const

virtual

Gets the joystick active state output port.

Returns: Pointer to the joystick active output port

Provides access to the port that indicates when joystick control is active.

◆ createElevationPort()

virtual bool makVre::DtBallisticGunJoyController::createElevationPort ( )

virtual

Creates the elevation control output port.

Returns: True if port was created successfully, false otherwise

Creates the output port used to control gun elevation via joystick input.

◆ elevationPort()

virtual DtConstrainedAnalogOutputPort * makVre::DtBallisticGunJoyController::elevationPort ( ) const

virtual

Gets the elevation control output port.

Returns: Pointer to the elevation output port

Provides access to the port that controls gun elevation.

◆ chooseAmmo()

virtual bool makVre::DtBallisticGunJoyController::chooseAmmo ( const DtEntityType & name = DtEntityType::nullType() )

virtual

Selects ammunition type for the weapon.

Parameters

name	The entity type of ammunition to select, or null for default

Returns: True if ammunition selection was successful, false otherwise

Attempts to select the specified ammunition type for the weapon. If no type is specified (nullType), uses the default ammunition.

◆ canFire()

virtual bool makVre::DtBallisticGunJoyController::canFire ( )

virtual

Checks if the weapon can currently fire.

Returns: True if the weapon can fire, false otherwise

Determines whether the weapon is currently able to fire based on ammunition availability and other weapon state conditions.

◆ creator()

static DtSimComponent * makVre::DtBallisticGunJoyController::creator	(	const DtString &	name,
		DtLocalObject *	owner,
		DtSimulationServices *	simManager,
		DtComponentDescriptor *	desc = 0,
		DtReaderWriterRegistry *	parentRegistry = 0 )

static

Factory method to create a new instance of this component.

Parameters

name	The name for the new component
owner	The local object that will own this component
simManager	The simulation services manager
desc	Optional component descriptor
parentRegistry	Optional parent registry for reader/writer functionality

Returns: Pointer to the newly created component

Static factory method used by the component creation system to instantiate new instances of this component type.

◆ tick()

virtual void makVre::DtBallisticGunJoyController::tick ( )

overrideprotectedvirtual

Updates the controller state each simulation frame.

Processes joystick input and updates output ports to control the associated ballistic gun actuator component.

Reimplemented in makVre::DtVreBallisticGunJoyController.

◆ calcAndSetPortValues()

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

overrideprotectedvirtual

Processes joystick input and updates output ports.

Parameters

functionGroup	The function group identifier for the input
function	The specific function identifier within the group
value	The input value from the joystick
repeat	Flag indicating if this is a repeated input

Implements the DtJoystickControllerInterface method to process joystick input and update the controller's output ports accordingly.

◆ joystickConnected()

virtual void makVre::DtBallisticGunJoyController::joystickConnected ( )

overrideprotectedvirtual

Handles joystick connection event.

Called when a joystick is connected to the system. Activates joystick control mode for this controller.

◆ joystickDisconnected()

virtual void makVre::DtBallisticGunJoyController::joystickDisconnected ( )

overrideprotectedvirtual

Handles joystick disconnection event.

Called when a joystick is disconnected from the system. Deactivates joystick control mode for this controller.

◆ createPorts()

virtual bool makVre::DtBallisticGunJoyController::createPorts ( )

overrideprotectedvirtual

Creates all required output ports for this controller.

Returns: True if all ports were created successfully, false otherwise

Overridden to create the specific output ports needed by this controller, including elevation control and joystick active state ports.

◆ operator=()

const DtBallisticGunJoyController & makVre::DtBallisticGunJoyController::operator= ( const DtBallisticGunJoyController & orig )

private

Assignment operator (not implemented)

Returns: Reference to this object

Assignment operator is private and not implemented to prevent assignment.
