How to use joysticks in Unrealscript?

[heavybolter]

Hi all, I'm sure this is really simple but I just can't seem to get any results. I'd like to set up a KActor to be moved using the UberStickMoveZone, but I can't figure out how to actually pass the input to the KActor. So I've been able to use some code like this:

StaticMeshComponent.AddTorque(vect(0,0,TurnSpeed));

to create a rotation, but I haven't been able to work out how to actually take in the input from the UberStickMoveZone.

In MobilePC.uc I've added this code:

// Update the junker's movement direction
function JunkerMove( float DeltaTime )
{
	if (Junker != None)
	{
		Junker.AxisInput(PlayerInput.aBaseX, PlayerInput.aBaseY);
	}
}

I've tried a ton of combinations but I can't seem to wrap my head around what exactly is going on with the movement code; I'm having trouble understanding where the UberStickMoveZone actually tells the pawn to move I've really tried searching and haven't been able to work this out from any of the other posts I could find so any help is appreciated

So I figured out the problem was that the MobilePC wasn't finding the KActor I'd set up, once I fixed that it's all working great

does this work allowing physics to stay active on the item you are moving around?

I was trying to get a mobileplaceable pawn to retain (some skeletal mesh elements with) ragdoll physics while I moved it around, and couldn't get it going. I even tried added them on as a socket (like a weapon).

if you have this working i'd be interested in how you got it setup.

I'm not sure if I'm understanding what you mean, but I tested using a KActor and a MobilePlaceablePawn for what I was working on and I ended up using a KActor for my purposes because it seems to allow easier physics control. So I'd imagine if you have a working ragdoll, maybe for what you're wanting to do you'd be better off moving it directly with these commands:
