If I ever figure out how/find a controller to pair with my computer I'd love to try this out

I have a friend who prefers to use a controller and if this works well it'd be so cool

[weary siren]

Does this work well on Steam Decks?

[silk rune]

I don't have a one but I think it works

[silk rune]

What is your controller ps or xbox

[twin valve]

Neither so I gotta pick one up 😅

Unless somehow joy cons work with steam

[dreamy wigeon]

They do!

[twin valve]

Ooo sick!

I'll try to test out the mod tonight or tomorrow then

@silk rune Hey, just so you know, I forked this mod a week ago to see if I could add mouse support (to fulfill a request for terminal accessibility), but ended up rewriting almost everything. I've included you in the credits in the mod page, and made it clear it was built upon your mod, but you might also be interested in how I redid some stuff (my code is available on GitHub, and I've included comments everywhere for this purpose). I kept the same license (MIT), so feel free to incorporate some of the changes into your mod. I'm mostly planning on focusing on mouse support for my fork, maybe readding controller compatibility in the future, but for now our mods can serve separate purposes.

[silk rune]

Wow interesting.
Mouse support was one of the planned thing that I want to add but now I don't have to do it which it's cool, also I have just dropped new update adding lategame upgrades compatibility

[twin valve]

I gotta remember to get this 😅

[versed hull]

Yeah, I originally wanted to open a pull request, but this would've ended up being the changelog: https://github.com/pacoito123/AccessibleTerminal/commit/2d8ae576cddf9fd33db7d5bba1d29d90cb6e2012

(A couple things need correction/more information in that commit message, but I can't exactly un-commit to modify it without changing the whole timeline basically, so the CHANGELOG.md in my mod will contain the 'actual' changes made when I forked).

"[B]uttons were previously being added manually." could be worded better, for instance, I was mostly referring to avoiding having to manually program decision trees for commands, since I got around that by simply letting the user type whichever word from each category they choose.

[versed hull]

I'm also planning on adding support for TooManyEmotes (which is basically just the emotes command, and emotes followed by the emote to purchase + a confirmation screen), you should be able to add gamepad support for it pretty easily, too.

[silk rune]

I have never used too many emotes but Its seems to be simple

[silk rune]

I can't understand what you are saying

[versed hull]

Ah, it's nothing important, just rambling that I could've written some stuff better/clearer in the changelog.

[silk rune]

Ok

[silk rune]

I saw in your post that u are trying to add vr support

[versed hull]

Yeah, planning on figuring it out, but it does involve switching from https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/GUIScriptingGuide.html (currently used by both our mods) to https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/com.unity.ugui.html, which allows the UI to be rendered in the world (to be interacted with in VR).

Basically moving from rendering to the window itself to using actual game objects, so if I can get the UI to show up in the world, everything else should just work fine with some minor changes.

[silk rune]

So the main problem is where the ui appear

[versed hull]

Sort of, it's mostly that the rays used to interact with stuff in VR are objects in-game, and also that there's a separate player camera actually displayed on the VR headset which is separate from what's shown in the window, and even if it was possible to simply switch to displaying the menu in the VR camera, it'd just be in the player's face constantly.

(You can see the 'rays' I'm talking about in the gifs shown in https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/DaXcess/LethalCompanyVR, which sort of act as an in-game cursor).

[versed hull]

It is a problem of where it appears, but using IMGUI it can only appear over the window, and it needs to appear in the world itself.

[silk rune]

So the main problem is where the ui appear which ugui fix by displaying it as a game object

[versed hull]

Yeah basically, but IMGUI is supposedly a lot easier to use...

[silk rune]

Yeah I understood

[silk rune]

I have just did some searching and I found out that ugui have screen adapt + buttons rearrange which they are things that I was searching for

[versed hull]

Oh, I did screen adapt like this to determine where to place the menu based on current window resolution, but you can also do width/height as Screen.currentResolution.width / <some number to scale it with> to scale that as well. Rearranging buttons is also possible, but it involves sorting/rearranging the lists used to generate the buttons themselves.

[silk rune]

My mod already had screen adapt and button rearrange but I found out that ugui is kinda better

[silk rune]

TooManyEmotes compatibility is out👍

[split birch]

hey i want to report a bug i found while using this mod

i tested this both with the version that says "preferred version" of InputUtils (0.6.3) as well as with the newest version (0.7.3)

i also used the starting keybinds for this as well as the actual keyboard to eliminate any potential for problems with my gamepad

every time i try to use the signal translator with this mod, it won't accept any inputs on my end

i tried every possible of the given keys on both the thunderstore page and the in game keybind menu and no matter what i do, any time i try to enter a letter, it won't let me

should be noted i also didnt use like the beta or anything, this is on the currently available non-beta version

other than this i haven't really noticed any problems with any other of the terminal commands

@silk rune

[silk rune]

That is happening cuz enter button on keyboard is still submit button so when u hit it will parse ur input it immediately instead of adding them to terminal input the only fix for now is changing the submit keybind

[split birch]

makes sense, makes sense

i'll try that then 🫡

[split birch]

works, thank you!

[silk rune]
