lovr.headset.getAxis

Edit

Get the current state of an analog axis on a device. Some axes are multidimensional, for example a 2D touchpad or thumbstick with x/y axes. For multidimensional axes, this function will return multiple values, one number for each axis. In these cases, it can be useful to use the select function built in to Lua to select a particular axis component.

... = lovr.headset.getAxis(device, axis)

Arguments

NameTypeDescription
deviceDevice The device.
axisDeviceAxis The axis.

Returns

NameTypeDescription
...number The current state of the components of the axis, or nil if the device does not have any information about the axis.

Notes

The axis values will be between 0 and 1 for 1D axes, and between -1 and 1 for each component of a multidimensional axis.

When hand tracking is active, pinch strength will be mapped to the trigger axis.
