Rotate to a custom angle

Open Magicx-Breeze opened this issue 1 month ago • 4 comments

Hello, I'd like to request that the rotation function be customizable in terms of direction?

Currently, it only allows 90 degrees, but I'd prefer 270 degrees. The reason is that some devices are designed for portrait-oriented gaming.

I'm currently using version 2.4, but I've tried newer versions and the same thing happened.

What is this device? Even if the screen is rotated 180°, what about the DPad and buttons?

I think this can be customized by players in the configuration settings. This won't affect any current functionality. Right now, even if you rotate 90 degrees, the directional keys are still messed up and need to be reconfigured.

This is a device that hasn't been released yet. It's the MagicX One 35 manufactured by MagicX, and it has two directional buttons. When in portrait mode, there are also L and R buttons on the side that can be used in combination.

If the angle can be modified, then my idea is to configure both horizontal and vertical Controller.cfg files. Since our front-end developers have advanced permissions, we can switch between and overwrite the Controller.cfg file in the mappings directory at any time to achieve a seamless experience.
