Onscreen joystick feedback v11f (Nexus One)

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Great work on the New Joystick! It's much better but there is still room for 
improvement. I really like the multitouch idea with movement and look on 
different sides of the screen, especially the feature where the joystick appear 
where you place your fingers.

My suggestions are:

1. Make the movement joystick behave like a proper joystick fall back to 
"neutral position" when you release the finger, and stop sending movement 
input. In the current limplementation i find myself getting stuck in moving in 
a direction after I release finger.

2. A configuration setting to configure which side of the screen is used for 
movement and which side is used for looking around. The N1 has a proper 
trackball which i would preffer to use for looking, as it also can be pressed 
to fire. I would therefore like to use the left side for movement, rather than 
the right.

3. Make the joystick overlay transparent gray (PSX4droid style, if possible. 
Maybe add a config for setting alpha value too.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Agree! The new controls are great improvement!

Just an idea: What do you think about triggering "centerview" when the player 
lifts his finger off the left control pad (or moves it outside the green area)? 

If I can help by creating graphics for the joysticks, just let me know:-)
