β¨ NAME β¨
al_get_max_haptic_effects β Allegro 5 API π¦
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
#include <allegro5/allegro.h>
int al_get_max_haptic_effects(ALLEGRO_HAPTIC *hap)
π DESCRIPTION π
So like, this one returns the maximum amount of haptic effects that can be uploaded to the device. That's it, that's the whole vibe. π«Ά
And no, it's not a fixed number, bestie β it depends on the operating system, the driver, the platform, and the device itself. Everybody's built different, fr fr. π
Also heads up: this may return a value as low as 1. Yes, one. Iconic minimalism honestly. π
β SINCE β
5.1.8 π
[Unstable API]: Perhaps could be simplified due to limited support for all the exposed features across all of the platforms. Awaiting feedback from users. π
lowkey not me telling you this API is still in its situationship era π it might get simplified later because not every platform supports all the exposed features, and the Allegro devs are literally waiting on feedback from users like you. so if you have thoughts... speak up, main character π£
aaaand that's the page!! no cap, that was the whole thing π§ go forth and count your effects π
