GetAxisRaw not snapping to 1/-1 when using joystick

I don't know if it is meant to be that way or if this is a bug, but when I'm using a joystick to check for horizontal inputs, using the GetAxisRaw() function, it simply doesn't return the integer values 1/-1. If this isn't a bug, how can I snap these values?

 

What values are you getting instead? Because you used the word integer and joystick. And GetAxisRaw return -1,0,1 only for keyboards. The joysticks return floating point numbers between -1 and 1.

Yeah, this is exactly what is happening. Any ideas on how to prevent that from happening? Like, make the joystick return 1 and -1 instantly?

 

You can Mathf.RoundToInt the value you're looking at.

 

Make it manually. If it's over a value (say 0.5, or it could be smaller if you want it to feel more responsive), treat it like a 1.0, if it's smaller than -0.5 (or whatever) treat it as -1.0, and ignore the rest.

 

Man you saved my life, ty!
