-----------------------------------

Joystick.GetInfo(joystick:int, var xPos, yPos :int. btn1Pressed, btn2Pressed:boolean)

Note that position of joystick is not the same ratio as screen, so you should use

screeX = round(maxx*(xPos-joyMin)/(joyMax - joyMin))
screeY = round(maxy*(yPos-joyMin)/(joyMax - joyMin))

Enjoy, and happy game making  :D

var x, y :int
var b1, b2 :boolean

loop
     Joystick.GetInfo(1, x, y, b1, b2)
     put "x: ", x
     put "y: ", y
     put "b1: ", b1
     put "b2: ", b2
     put ""
     put ""
end loop


that will give you a costant print out of where the joy sticks x and y is and if it's butions are pushed down. you coude add locate stuff and daylys to this code to make it more readable.
