Detailed Description

Manages a mapping from unique player identifiers to different controllers that connect and disconnect throughout the game.

Additionally, this class abstracts the different controller capabilities away from the game, instead defining and allowing the querying of different player action values.

Note: PlayerManager currently supports the following controller "types": gamepads, touch navigation devices, and keyboards.

Member Enumeration Documentation

enum PlayerManager::PlayerAction

Different actions or expressions of intent a player can make in the game.

Note: PlayerActions are not necessarily distinctive amongst themselves, but rather represent the full set of actions a player can express using different types of controllers supported by PlayerManager.

Enumerator
LEFT	Unidirectional action for movement to the left.
RIGHT	Unidirectional action for movement to the right.
HORIZONTAL	Bidirectional action for movement left or right (i.e. horizontal).
MAGNETIZE	Action for magnetizing.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

PlayerManager::PlayerManager ( QObject * parent = nullptr )

explicit

Constructs a PlayerManager.

Parameters

parent Parent object

Member Function Documentation

QList<int> PlayerManager::getAvailablePlayers ( ) const

inline

Returns the list of currently available players (i.e. players currently connected with a controller).

float PlayerManager::getHorizontal ( int player ) const

Returns the horizontal movement value [-1.0f, 1.0f] for player.

static PlayerManager* PlayerManager::getInstance ( )

static

Returns the global singleton instance of the PlayerManager, creating it if necessary.

VirtualController* PlayerManager::getPlayerController ( int player ) const

Returns the VirtualController for player.

bool PlayerManager::isMagnetized ( int player ) const

Returns whether or not the the player has magnetism activated.

bool PlayerManager::isPlayerAvailable ( int player ) const

inline

Returns whether or not player is available (i.e. currently connected with a controller).

void PlayerManager::playerActivationChanged	(	int	playerId,
		bool	status
	)

signal

Emitted when player playerId becomes either activated (i.e. connects a controller) or deactivated (i.e. disconnects their controller).

Parameters

playerId	Id of player who has become activated
status	`true` if `playerId` has connected

void PlayerManager::reset ( )

Resets all the player <-> controller mappings.

Note: This method will also reset all the associated VirtualController states as well.
