Roblox accepts input from USB gamepads such as Xbox and Playstation controllers. A game can support up to eight local controllers per client. Detecting GamepadsYou can detect whether a player’s device currently has a gamepad active using the UserInputService/GamepadEnabled|UserInputService.GamepadEnabled property. Note that this property merely shows whether or not any gamepads are connected, not how many are plugged in or which slots they’re in.
Since up to eight gamepads can be connected to a client at once, it’s important to know which are active. One method is to listen to the UserInputService/GamepadConnected|GamepadConnected and UserInputService/GamepadDisconnected|GamepadDisconnected events which will fire when a device is enabled or disabled respectively. Both will pass a Enum/UserInputType enum to the connected function indicating which gamepad caused the event (in most cases it will be Enum.UserInputType.Gamepad1 but if your game supports local multiplayer, you should confirm this).
You can also actively query whether a particular controller is connected using the UserInputService/GetGamepadConnected|UserInputService:GetGamepadConnected() function. This takes a Enum/UserInputType enum as an argument and only accepts values of Enum.UserInputType.Gamepad1 through Enum.UserInputType.Gamepad8.
There are three ways to get input from a gamepad:
ContextActionServiceContextActionService is especially useful for binding controls to both gamepads and other input sources. For example, if you want to bind a custom “open spell book” action to the right trigger (R2) on a gamepad and the B key on a keyboard, ContextActionService can handle both cases in one function:
Functions bound to ContextActionService will fire on all input states (enum/UserInputState|Begin, enum/UserInputState|Change, and enum/UserInputState|End), so it's highly recommended that you check the InputObject/UserInputState|UserInputState as seen on line 4 to ensure the desired action only happens on the state you intend it to. When detecting gamepad events with UserInputService, all of the controls will fire the UserInputService/InputBegan|InputBegan and UserInputService/InputEnded|InputEnded events. In the handling function, the InputObject/UserInputType property indicates which gamepad fired the event and InputObject/KeyCode indicates the specific button or stick that fired it.
Most gamepads also support analog controls. To detect input from these, use the UserInputService/InputChanged|InputChanged event and detect the position of the input’s axis via InputObject/Position. The thumbstick’s position will always be on the X and Y axes between the values of -1 and 1, while the trigger buttons will only have values between 0 and 1 on the Z axis (0 at its starting position; 1 when fully pressed).
The state of all the buttons and sticks on a gamepad can be detected at any time with the UserInputService/GetGamepadState|UserInputService:GetGamepadState() function. This is useful if you need to detect gamepad input when a non-controller event occurs. For example, the following code detects when a character’s left foot touches something while the player is holding down the right trigger:
Not all gamepads have the same number or types of inputs, so it’s important to check which inputs a connected gamepad has. You can do so with the UserInputService/GetSupportedGamepadKeyCodes|UserInputService:GetSupportedGamepadKeyCodes() function which takes a Enum/UserInputType enum as an argument and returns a table with a list of all available inputs for the specified controller.
You can also check if a gamepad supports a specific button via UserInputService/GamepadSupports|UserInputService:GamepadSupports(). As with any method of user input, it’s best to create some consistency across different games and applications. This helps players immediately feel familiar and comfortable with your control scheme. Here are some suggested practices when implementing gamepad controls:
