JoystickPlugin :joystick:
This plugin uses SDL2 functions to pass input to the Unreal Engine Gameplay Input Loop.
It provides a project friendly Force Feedback Effect library to enable Developers to create dynamic effects that are affected by gameplay.

How is this any different to the existing plugins? :thinking:
This plugin has been rebuilt (almost entirely) from it's forked version.
It was designed with Unreal in mind, rather than a generic C++ plugin - making use of Subsystems, Project Settings and more!
The plugin is also multi-platform, supporting Linux and Windows distributions.
