I am trying to get the solid integer for the analog stick, but when I do something like below it stops at 140ish then jumps to 255 a second later when the stick is pushed all the way.

var stickv;

while(1){
stickv=integer(joy_raw.x);
wait(1);
}

I have this displayed in a panel along with the actual joy_raw.x.
the joy updates super fast and the integer shows pretty fast when below 100 (or above -100) but much past that and it freezes.
any ideas?

tryI'm guessing you have something else in your code or you have a dodgy joypad causing the issue. Hopefully this code should highlight it.

I'll give that a try when I get home. I haven't been checking the joy_force.x
I do have some other code in my while loop, but nothing that should give me trouble past a cetain threshold, but work fine below that.
I'll check it out tonight.
