Title: Check if running on consoles?
Post by: IIKII on August 09, 2021, 01:28:30 AM

Hi, I am using 'get joystick name' action to get whether the player is running on consoles since consoles only use joystick controllers.

Curious if this is the correct or the best way to check if the game is running on consoles?

thanks

No, since console gamepads can be used on PC. Use Platform Dependent Events.

Nice, thanks. I think they changed the action name to 'runtime platform events'.
