Mobile Joystick with strafe, look and duck

[fluxist8070]

Hi Guys,

I am trying to get the mobile joystick to use multiple key bindings and I'm not having much luck so far. Here is what I have- I am modding the SPG_PlayerController from the Platformer Game Starter Kit.

Chained Key Binding

Bindings=(Name="MOBILE_APlatformY",Command="Axis aUp Speed=-1.0  AbsoluteAxis=100 | Axis aLookup Speed=+1 DeadZone=0.05 | Axis aLookup Speed=-1 DeadZone=0.05 ")

Joystick Input Zone

InputKey=APlatformY
HorizontalInputKey=MOBILE_AStrafe
Type=ZoneType_Joystick
bRelativeX=true
bRelativeY=true
bRelativeSizeX=true
bRelativeSizeY=true
X=0.1
Y=-0.3
SizeX=0.15
SizeY=1.0
bSizeYFromSizeX=true
VertMultiplier=-1.0
HorizMultiplier=1.0
bScalePawnMovement=true
RenderColor=(R=0,G=255,B=69,A=255)
InactiveAlpha=0.25
bUseGentleTransitions=true
ResetCenterAfterInactivityTime=3.0
ActivateTime=0.6
DeactivateTime=0.2
TapDistanceConstraint=5

Here is where I found a good many answers. I would suggest you looking under the Adding input Zones it'll give you a better idea of what/how to do it. It might answer your questions.
