keymaps for Gemini Rue

[voodoo]

I want to play on my Android Device (AYN Odin 2) the game Gemini Rue. Overall it works very fine, but there are action sequences here for which it is necessary to create keyboard maps so that I can play the game with the controller. But I don't know which commands has to be set in the scummvm.ini.

I want the following:

JOY_HAT_X- -> keyboard A
JOY_HAT_X+ -> Keyboard D
JOY_HAT_Y- -> Keyboard R
JOY_HAT_Y+ -> Keyboard Space

Currently this cannot be done in ScummVM.

Maybe in the future there could be a special keymapper for this game (it's an AGS game, and we probably cannot do this for every AGS game (there are thousands!), but this one has its own keymapper, so *maybe* there could be a way for ScummVM to expose that module/hooks to the user). In that case, it would be more like mapping a key to an action though (eg. JOY_HAT_X- -> "Exit Cover (Top)"). It would require a developer to work on this feature though (if it's viable).

The other option, the one you suggest could also be a potential future task for the app, although the way I'm thinking it, it might be very complex to implement.

The easier alternative would be for the game itself to have support for gamepad keys (currently it only accepts keyboard keys, and can be finicky for some of those too, eg. the lowercase "w").

As is, I suppose the only option is to use the overlay keyboard of the app.

Thanks for your answer. Will you create a Feature Request?

I'm a software developer (c#, Javascript, HTML) with no experience in developing games. Can I help somehow or is it complicated to come in in this topic?
