Using a Joystick in my game ???

[yanbuzz]

Hi there you FlashBudds!!

I was wandering if there was a way i could program my games so it can be played with a joystick ??? (That would be very COOOOOOL, dont you think?)

You can't - perhaps if you created a joystick plug-in for the browser, you could, but it would be lots of work, and portability of such plug-ins is always a problem ...

I check out your pinball game, by the way - looks like it could become very, very cool! ... I like the graphics, and collision seems to be pretty exact. On the downside, framerate is too low, and most walls and stuff "spring" the ball so much it basically flies straight ahead most of the time. The walls should not spring so much, perhaps, and there should be a little more gravity? otherwise looks totally cool!

Actually you can use most game devises that map controls as keyboard / mouse events. I have most of the Microsoft sidewinder game devise and all of them can be set to custom settings witch, act as if the keyboard is sending the command!
