Does anyone know if there is an easier way to read the direction of the hat of a joystick into a Pyton script, than by hooking the script up to 8 sensors (one for each direction)
kind regards
Smitje
if I recall, in python the hat position is a single value
which actually is a bitfield, so 1 is up, 2 is right, 4 is down, 8 is left, 3 is up right, 6 is down right, 12 is down left and 9 is up left… or something it should be rambled about in the docs
I was playing with the joystick sensor too today 
. A stupid question 
:
what is the hat?
The little jiggle-button on top of the joystick.
I just coined the term jiggle-button.
