[Feature Request][Sonic Frontiers] Allow redirection for "Disable Spin Charge Air Deceleration"

[mikeploythai]

For the current "Disable Spin Charge Air Deceleration" code, Sonic is fixed to whatever direction he was in prior to spin charging in the air. I think a good quality of life improvement to this code is to allow the player to redirect where to land based on where they tilt the left stick.

I made an implementation of this in a physics mod I created, which uses Player.Kinematics to update the velocity vector using the GetForward() method. Just wanted to share this snippet and video demonstrations so someone can consider implementing this behavior in a much neater fashion lol. I hope what I provided can be helpful and insightful!

var kinematics = Player.Kinematics.Get();
if (kinematics == null) return;

// check if the player in the air
// check if LT is being held to prevent weird behaviors when spin charging a drop dash
// check if current state is the spin charge
if (
  !Player.Status.IsGrounded() &&
  Player.Input.IsDown(Player.InputActionType.PlayerSonicboom) &&
  Player.State.GetCurrentStateID<Sonic.StateID>() == Sonic.StateID.StateSpinBoostCharge
) {
  kinematics->Velocity += Player.Kinematics.GetForward();
}

This is an interesting concept. It might be worth scaling the velocity to have a maximum magnitude though, as the player tends to rocket off if you keep holding in a direction. lol

I've implemented this locally and added a check for if the analog stick is neutral and it feels a bit less slippery, so I may experiment with this.

Thanks for your feedback!

Tiny bit off topic, but could you provide an example for the IsAnalogNeutral method, which is what I assume you're using to check for neutrality? Can't find much documentation for an example integer to pass.
