## Mapping

The system supports input and tips for Xbox-type controllers. If there are slight differences from the default settings or in input methods, reconfigure in the Input Controller:

* Button mapping, for example, if A and X buttons are swapped. Button index is logged when button is pressed during recording.
* The names of axes that are used in your project for input.

The system assumes the following mapping:

* LeftStickHorizontalAxis - "LeftStickHorizontal" (left, right) - X Axis
* LeftStickVerticalAxis - "LeftStickVertical" (down, up + invert) - Y Axis
* TriggerAxis - "Triggers" (left/right) - 3rd Axis
* RightStickHorizontalAxis - "RightStickHorizontal" (left, right) - 4th Axis
* RightStickVerticalAxis - "RightStickVertical" (down, up + invert) - 5th Axis
* DPadHorizontal - "DebugHorizontal" (left/right) - 6th Axis
* DPadVertical - "DebugVertical" (down/up) - 7th Axis

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://octanta-studio.gitbook.io/automatic-tutorial-maker-for-unity-in-game-tips/data/supported-input-joystick.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
