[RESOLVED] Detecting when key is not being pressed anymore

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.

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.
