[RESOLVED] Detecting when key is not being pressed anymore

[Nife]

Guys, simple and dirty:

I'm using the joystick.isDown to move an object, but the detection happens extremely fast - I need a condition for when a certain key is released after being pressed.

Thanks.

See the love.joystickpressed and love.joystickreleased callbacks.

Worked like a charm, thank you very much!

Reminder to whoever happens to bump here looking for the solution:

Um, I don't think that code does what you think it does.

Here, the global variable controllerName is shadowed by the first argument to love.joystickpressed, so you can't access it inside that callback.

Not to mention the first argument of love.joystickpressed is the joystick index, not its name.

You are right, my apologies for that - removed that bit of stupidity from the post.
