Axis 3 on joystick

camper365 · #1 13-02-2009, 22:15

I am trying to use the dial on the bottom of the joystick, and I know that it's Axis 3. The problem is that the bottom of the dial (all the way down) is -1 and the top is 1. I want to make the bottom 0 and the top 1. Is there any way I can do that.
I have tried Absolute Value, but that makes the bottom 1 and the top 1 (the middle 0). Is there a way to recalibrate the axis in the code?

You could simply add 1 to the output and then divide that value by 2.

that's all I need. I knew it wsa something simple, but I couldn't think of it right then (what I really hate is when that happens on my math test)
