Delta-controls NPM

Δcοnτrοιs

A 3D movement controller that supports multiple movement modes and configurable input settings.

Installation

This library requires the peer dependency math-ds.

npm install math-ds delta-controls

Usage

Note: This library is compatible with the math classes from three.js.

import { Quaternion, Vector3 } from "math-ds";
import { DeltaControls } from "delta-controls";

const position = new Vector3();
const rotation = new Quaternion();
const domElement = document.getElementById("viewport");
const controls = new DeltaControls(position, rotation, domElement);

let t0 = performance.now();

(function render(t) {

	requestAnimationFrame(render);
	controls.update(t0 - t);
	t0 = t;

	// Render things.

}());

Settings

Configuration

import { Action, KeyCode } from "delta-controls";

const settings = controls.settings;
const keyBindings = settings.keyBindings;

// Activate or deactivate third person controls. Enabled by default.
controls.setOrbitEnabled(true|false);

settings.pointer.hold = true;
settings.rotation.minPolarAngle = 0.125;
settings.sensitivity.rotation = 0.075;
settings.translation.enabled = true;
settings.zoom.minDistance = 1.0;

keyBindings.delete(KeyCode.X);
keyBindings.set(KeyCode.V, Action.MOVE_DOWN);

Saving

const settingsURL = settings.toDataURL();
const a = document.createElement("a");
a.href = settingsURL;
a.setAttribute("download", "controls.json");
a.click();
URL.revokeObjectURL(settingsURL);

Loading

const request = new XMLHttpRequest();

request.addEventListener("readystatechange", function() {

	if(this.readyState === 4 && this.status === 200) {

		controls.settings.copy(JSON.parse(this.responseText));

	}

});

request.open("GET", "./controls.json");
request.send();
