I am not sure if I should report this as a bug or otherwise, I have never used bugzilla but a search for joystick doesn't yeald much. Anyway I just sat down to try and play UQM with a friend using 2 joysticks (USB both). Both identical. In game the axis are not being listened to. The buttons all work and if I set it up to use the hat the hat works but the axis do not. Here is a snip from the config file:
Player-2-Thrust: joystick 1 axis 1 negative
Player-2-Left: joystick 1 axis 0 negative
Player-2-Right: joystick 1 axis 0 positive
thanks for any sugjestions (oh, and if I bind player 2 to use axis data from player 1 it works fine, it's like it is ignoring joystick 2 axis input). Also the joystick works fine in the windows control panel as well as a DirectX app I am playing with.
Basicaly I am looking for confirmation on if this is my own wrong doing or not.

I tend to use the latest builds on the cvs snapshots page: http://uqm.stack.nl/files/snapshots/
Currently using the 8-13 build non-debug. I also tried the stable build of 003, same problem both (though the stable build has issues sound wize for me so thats why I use the latest build)... Thats what made me uncertain as to if this was bug worthy or just my own error.

Hrm. When UQM starts, it will interrogate the joystick information. How many joysticks does it say it finds? My system has one joystick, so the startup reads...
1 joysticks were found.
The names of the joysticks are:
USB Game Device
How many joysticks are being detected by SDL?

Yeah, that definitely sounds like a bug all right. I'll see what I can do - this will probably involve begging a joystick from someone else. =/ Thanks for the report.
