With input.touch_aim_assist false, walking with the touch stick still let the view follow a target: the touch controls now count as aiming without the assist until a stick aims again (halo_linux_touch_aiming), as the mouse does. The stick's diagonal is full on both axes, as a controller's square stick gives. The gyroscope reaches the game apart from the swipe (nativeGyro), so the profile's invert look turns only the swipe.
The overlay shows once the game has been in play for 200 ms, so it does not flash at a level's first frame. The options dialogs are counted, so a dialog opened from another keeps the controls released, and the layout is saved when the last one closes (a slider moved without a finger was not). A floating stick rests where the thumb lands, even near an edge, and not in the bottom gesture zone. A finger's width is at most 34 logical units, so the D-pad's buttons stay apart on a small dense display. A held button that takes over the swipe from another finger starts from where it is, not from where it went down. The system bars coming and going no longer release every finger. Hide stops the gyroscope.
The libtiff comments are corrected: the screenshot_count and screenshot_size globals also reached tiff_export, but read back-buffer memory the port never draws into, so they never had the picture. Stale comments are fixed and the source exclusion test covers folders.
The stick moves the player through the game's input state (keyboard_controls_update), as the keys do, so it moves with a southpaw or legacy stick layout too, where it was the left stick. The buttons are named by the profile's button layout, which the game sends the overlay as it changes (host_touch_bindings): with Swap triggers the right trigger's button says Grenade.
No control is smaller than a finger (48 dp across). The overlay's opacity can be set; a floating move stick (off by default) goes where the thumb lands in the lower left. Hide is remembered, and Hide and Options act as the finger lifts on them, so a swipe that starts on them aims rather than opens the options mid-fight. A label too long for its button is drawn smaller.
TouchControls, TouchLayout, GyroscopeAim and HaloActivity's touch layout files in the repository's style; the layout file is version 3 (opacity, floating stick), and versions 1 and 2 still load. CI runs the layout tests.
An overlay over the game, from JoshRob297's halo-ce-touch, which ported
theLlamaNet's halo-ce-android: a stick, the controller's buttons with word
labels, swipe aiming, optional gyroscope aiming, the phone's vibration, and
an editor to move, resize, hide, copy, export and import the buttons. It
is player 1's controller, merged into port 0's state as the keyboard is.
Changes from the fork:
- The controls show only in a game. In the menus and during cinematics
they hide and let the fingers through, so HiIAmMoot's menu touch
(upstream #50) and its tap to skip work under them. The game tells the
overlay through a new host import, host_touch_scene.
- They hide while a controller with a stick is connected, such as a
handheld's built-in one, and never show without a touchscreen (a TV).
The new setting input.touch_controls ("auto", "on", "off"; default
"auto") overrides this. Hiding with a controller follows diegotorres00's
upstream #58.
- Swipes that start in Android's edge-gesture zones do not turn the view,
and a press shorter than a frame is held long enough for the game to see
it, as HiIAmMoot suggested in the review of #58.
- The swipe is not the mouse's aiming, so it keeps the controller's aim
assist.
- The phone vibrates from port 0's XInputSetState, so the game's own
vibration setting applies and no game source changes. It vibrates only
while the touch controls show.
- The fork's cheats menu and its built-in cheat buttons are left out.
