extends Control

## A simple virtual joystick for touchscreens, with useful options.

# EXPORTED VARIABLE

## The color of the button when the joystick is pressed.

## The max distance the tip can reach.

	FIXED, ## The joystick doesn't move.
	DYNAMIC, ## Every time the joystick area is pressed, the joystick position is set on the touched position.
	FOLLOWING ## When the finger moves outside the joystick area, the joystick will follow it.
}

## If the joystick stays in the same position or appears on the touched position when touch is started
@export var joystick_mode := Joystick_mode.FIXED

	ALWAYS, ## Always visible
