Deadzone at the beginning of an Axis?

Hello guys!

The Problem at hand: My Logitech Momo's brake pedal sensor isn't the best anymore. Sometimes it will flicker at values of about 5 - 9% brake force without me touching the pedal at all. Many games offer deadzone Settings where i put on options of 15 to 35 to make sure none of the flickering will bother me while driving.

This is the basic code string:

%mm.bind(%device, rzaxis,"RI", brake_direct);

What is the correct way to alter it to have a deadzone of about 15% of the axis at the beginning, so that minor braking inputs are ignored?

This should help you. You can simply add a deadzone to your brake binding and that should work.

Also if that doesn't help you, you can always just refer to the xbox 360 controller bindings, they have a deadzone you can copy and change to your liking

 

I already tried a few things yesterday and today. I basically didn't even know how to script the deadzone itself. Looking into the other mappings helped a lot, and after another 5 attempts i finally got it!

I combined
$gp_deadzone = "0.00 0.50";
and
%mm.bind(%device, rzaxis,"RID", $gp_deadzone, brake_direct);
in case anyone ever needs something like this and is similarly clueless ;D

Thank you very much!
