Windows and MSFS2020 unable to recognize all analog inputs

[thomasnield]

I have tried running this code to see if Windows 10 and Microsoft Flight Simulator would pick up all analog inputs this library allows. It simply iterates the values 0 through 1023. Unfortunately both platforms only seem to pick up 7 analog inputs.

Is this a bug or a known limitation?

#include <Joystick.h>

Joystick_ Joystick(JOYSTICK_DEFAULT_REPORT_ID,JOYSTICK_TYPE_GAMEPAD,
  0, 0,                  // Button Count, Hat Switch Count
  true, true, true,     // X, Y, Z Axis
  true, true, true,    // Rx, Ry, Rz
  true, true,         // rudder, throttle
  true, true, true); // accelerator, brake, steering

void setup() {
    Joystick.begin();
}

void loop() {

  for (int i = 0; i < 1024; i++) {
    Joystick.setXAxis(i);
    Joystick.setYAxis(i);
    Joystick.setZAxis(i);
    Joystick.setThrottle(i);
    Joystick.setRudder(i);
    Joystick.setRxAxis(i);
    Joystick.setRyAxis(i);
    Joystick.setRzAxis(i);
    Joystick.setAccelerator(i);
    Joystick.setBrake(i);

    delay(50);
  }
}

I get stranger results when I try different combinations. Here I am only able to get 5 inputs.

#include <Joystick.h>

Joystick_ Joystick(JOYSTICK_DEFAULT_REPORT_ID,JOYSTICK_TYPE_GAMEPAD,
  0, 0,                  // Button Count, Hat Switch Count
  true, true, true,     // X, Y, Z Axis
  false, false, false,   // No Rx, Ry, or Rz
  true, true,          // rudder, throttle
  true, true, true);  // accelerator, brake, steering

void setup() {
    Joystick.begin();
}

void loop() {

  for (int i = 0; i < 1024; i++) {
    Joystick.setXAxis(i);
    Joystick.setYAxis(i);
    Joystick.setZAxis(i);
    Joystick.setThrottle(i);
    Joystick.setRudder(i);
    //Joystick.setRxAxis(i);
    //Joystick.setRyAxis(i);
    //Joystick.setRzAxis(i);
    Joystick.setAccelerator(i);
    Joystick.setBrake(i);

    delay(50);
  }
}

Alright I think this issue was resolved on another thread. I have made this change in my own fork.
