Godot SDL Gyro

GDextention that allows to read Gyro from a controller in Godot 4, it utilizes SDL and JibbSmart GamepadMotionHelpers libraries

Usage

Download the latest build from the Releases tab Extract the addons folder and place it in the root of your project

in your GDscript make a new SDLGyro object

...
var Gyro=SDLGyro.new()
...

initialize SDL and The controller ready function

...
func _ready():
  Gyro.sdl_init()
  Gyro.controller_init()
...

call any of the folloing functions in the process fuction

      gamepad_polling()            //returns controller orientation(this function needs to be called so that the others can work)

      calibrate()                //starts continous calibrations
      stop_calibrate()           //stops continius calibration
     
      get_player_space()          //not working
      get_world_space()           //not working
      get_gravity()               //not working
  
      get_calibrated_gyro()        //retutns the controller's angular velocity in degrees per second
      get_processed_acceleration() //returns the controller's current acceleration in g-force with gravity removed
