JoyUDir([port])

Parameters

port (optional) - an integer value representing the port to be checked for joystick data

Description

Returns an integer value between -1 and 1 that represents the U value of a joystick's output.

The U value of a joystick usually corresponds to a joystick's 'slider' or 'throttle' feature, although this may vary depending on the joystick, and will not be available with all joysticks.

The optional port parameter allows you to select which joystick to get output from should you have multiple controllers connected to your PC.
