Another fabric mod to add controller support to Minecraft Java - with a focus on compatibility.

## Work In Progress

This mod is still in development (so is this readme!) and is not ready for use. If you want to help contribute,
there are a few things you can do:

- Find/create controller diagrams & buttons for each major controller brand.
- Add built-in support for common mod GUIs (contact me for a how-to).

## Why another?

Yes, mods like [Midnight Controls](https://modrinth.com/mod/midnight-controls) already exist. However due to the fact it
was forked from a now abandoned project, its codebase is a mess and adding compatibility for it ultimately drove me to
create this mod!

### Containerised Controllers

This mod is built around the fact that each controller is completely separate, with it's own configuration, bindings etc.
This means it will be trivial to add support for split-screen play in the future.

### Built for mod compatibility

GUI operation has been abstracted into a simple API, which allows other mods to easily add support for their own GUIs,
without convoluted support throughout the whole mod's codebase, making it difficult for third parties to integrate.

## What is to come?

You can see the [project board](https://github.com/users/isXander/projects/3) which has a list of planned features.

## Backports?

This mod is only and will only be available for **1.19.4** and above, this is because in 1.19.4, Mojang
introduced arrow key navigation which was easily ported to controller, below 1.19.4, this is not possible.
