NippleJS v1.0.4

A small patch release fixing a regression in multi-manager pointer event handling. Thanks again @akromann for the follow-up in #246.

🐛 Bug Fixes

Multiple managers closed each other when using pointer events — Factory.cleanInactiveTouches() treated [evt.identifier] as the full set of active pointers for non-touch events, causing every joystick with a different pointerId to be force-ended on each pointerdown/pointerup. The cleanup now runs only for TouchEvents (which carry the complete touches list); per-pointer pointerup/pointercancel already handles its own cleanup. Also snapshots the joystick map before iterating to avoid mutation during the loop. (2c087f9)
TouchList iteration tightened — processEvents() now wraps evt.changedTouches with Array.from() for broader TypeScript/iterator compatibility. (653b81d)

✅ Tests

Added regression coverage for cleanInactiveTouches ensuring pointer events don't force-end sibling joysticks, and that TouchEvent cleanup still removes truly inactive joysticks. (2721cf4)

Jojsticken is a program that maps joystick events to keyboard events. Or simply, it maps joysticks buttons to keyboard buttons.
vJoy
This project was originally designed to provide an open-source replacement for PPJoy. The product, at this point, consists of virtual joystick devices that is seen by the system as a standard joystick but its position-data is written to it by a feeder application. An existing feeder application that takes advantage of this product is SmartPropoPlus. If you are an application writer you can very easily write an application that controls a joystick (e.g. mouse-to-joystick, keyboard-to-joystick). If you are a beginner in device drivers you can take this code and enhance it to support more (or less) axes, buttons or POVs.
Wiiji
Wii joystick interface. Wiiji is the perfect joystick solution for Wii remotes on Mac. Wii remotes will appear as joysticks to the OS. It does this through a kernel extention. It can emulate keyboard input. It runs in the menu bar.
Linux Joystick Mapper
A linux userspace device driver that allows joystick events to be remapped. Several joysticks can be combined into a single controller, and button/axes events can be remapped to new joystick, keyboard or mouse events. Advanced scripting also supported.
