Okay. Here's the big one. Of all the questions I unleash to the forum this is
the most crucial for my project (even though it might not sound important).
I'm also afraid that it might be too advanced a topic for me to get involved,
but in any case here it goes.
For my 2D Flash fighting game I'm trying to implement USB controller support
so two players can have joysticks or action pads instead of crowding the
keyboard. I've seen this easily done in emulators and things of that nature
before, but is there a way to get Flash to recognize the joystick inputs much
like using the Key.isDown(keycode) for keystrokes?
(Please, oh please, oh please say yes) :oP As always, your help is more
than appreciated!

Well, I'm happy to have posted such an "intelligent" question, seeing how no
one can seem to offer any insight. Please, if anyone has some suggestions on
how to recognize USB device (joystick) controls through Flash and Windows don't
hesitate to post your reply. Thanks again.
