SYNOPSIS

struct ff_effect {
__u16 type;
__s16 id;
__u16 direction;
struct ff_trigger trigger;
struct ff_replay replay;
union u;

MEMBERS

type

type of the effect (FF_CONSTANT, FF_PERIODIC, FF_RAMP, FF_SPRING, FF_FRICTION, FF_DAMPER, FF_RUMBLE, FF_INERTIA, or FF_CUSTOM)

id

an unique id assigned to an effect

DIRECTION OF THE EFFECT IS ENCODED AS FOLLOWS

0 deg -> 0x0000 (down) 90 deg -> 0x4000 (left) 180 deg -> 0x8000 (up) 270 deg -> 0xC000 (right)
