CC:Gamepad
by tiktop101
CC:Gamepad lets ComputerCraft computers read input from a real gamepad or controller through a peripheral block, once a player has bound a controller to it.
What it does
A Gamepad Peripheral block is added by the mod. Once a player binds a controller to it, a ComputerCraft computer that wraps the peripheral can read that controller's state from Lua. Up to four players can share one Gamepad Peripheral, each occupying one of the four slots, and the controller read on the client is passed to the server, where the Lua side receives it.
The mod works in singleplayer, on LAN and on dedicated multiplayer servers. Because the environment is client and server, the server and every player who uses a controller need the mod installed. It depends on CC: Tweaked, which provides the computer and peripheral system the block plugs into. The project is open source under the Mozilla Public License 2.0, and it is published for NeoForge only, on Minecraft 1.21.1. The latest file is 1.0.2-neoforge-1.21.1, released on 2026-06-16.
Key features
Controller input in Lua
Computers read the buttons and axes of a connected gamepad through the wrapped peripheral, like any other CC: Tweaked peripheral.
Four player slots
Each Gamepad Peripheral keeps up to four controller slots, so one block can serve four players at the same time.
Button and axis queries
Functions return the full state of a slot, test whether a numbered or named button is held, and read numbered or named axis values.
Controller list
A function returns the connected controller states, with player names, UUIDs, controller names, GUIDs and a server timestamp.
