| When pushing the stick in a direction, after getting past the [[en:tutorials:analog_stick_threshold|threshold]], the push will be "ON". Before the threshold, it will be off, emulating a digital joystick or gamepad direction inputs (d-pad). | When pushing the stick in a direction, after getting past the [[en:tutorials:input:analog_stick_threshold|threshold]], the push will be "ON".

| The ''+JOY_LX_1'' above means, if the left analog stick is pushed along the X axis, in the positive direction, and after it has crossed the [[en:tutorials:analog_stick_threshold|threshold]], which is half the entire distance the stick can move (0.5), register a ''GoRight'' button press. | The ''+JOY_LX_1'' above means, if the left analog stick is pushed along the X axis, in the positive direction, and after it has crossed the [[en:tutorials:input:analog_stick_threshold|threshold]], which is half the entire distance the stick can move (0.5), register a ''GoRight'' button press. |

| In the same way, the ''-JOY_LY_1'' means the if the Y axis has been pulled down with the left stick, and has passed the halfway (0.5) threshold, register a ''GoDown'' press. | In the same way, the ''-JOY_LY_1'' means the if the Y axis has been pulled down with the left stick, and has passed the halfway (0.5) threshold, register a ''GoDown'' press. |

| Finally in the ''Run()'' function, we can add the code to respond to these "presses". ''Run()'' is not normally the recommended place to put this code, but for demonstration purposes, it is fine: | Finally in the ''Run()'' function, we can add the code to respond to these "presses".
