Add FLICK STICK to Steam Controller Configuration

[Jibb]

Flick stick lets you very quickly turn to face any direction in a game. You can see it in action in CS:GO using JoyShockMapper here:

It's really easy to implement -- I know, because I did it in JoyShockMapper. It takes some calibrating that depends on the game and the user's sensitivity settings, but that's OK. In Steam's controller configuration, all you'd need is a slider (preferably with a visible number people can share) so Steam knows how far to move the virtual mouse to achieve a given angle rotation in-game.

You might also want a smoothing option -- the DualShock 4 analog sticks are pretty low-res, and it can be distracting without some smoothing.

That's all explained here, the official guide to implementing good flick stick:

Would love to see this!

[Locksmith]

This would be a cool feature to have.

[Electronicks]

Yes, either add the functionality, or have a way for the community to add their own handlers! SteamInput needs a breath of new life!

[klangspiel]

This would make a great addition to Steam Input!

[SS Anubis]

I'd be really interested in seeing how this could be implemented in Steam's controller configuration!

[Random Randy]

This would be purely beneficial

[kekMateHUN]

Yes, please do! I love SIAPI, I don't want to use another 3rd party software!

Yes, I see this as very useful for the steam controller touchpad. In fact, it could be added to the "mouse" functionality instead of "edge turning" use the edge as a dial for relative mouse movements.

Yeah, I think that'd work really well!

Just found this via youtube. I really like the idea and will forward it on to the other team members. Can't commit to definitely shipping it or anything though.

Also just for future reference - folks working on Steam Input like me are much more likely to see this if it's posted in the Steam Controller discussions than here:
