SDL_SetJoystickVirtualAxis - Man Page

#include <SDL3/SDL_joystick.h>

bool SDL_SetJoystickVirtualAxis(SDL_Joystick *joystick, int axis, Sint16 value);

Please note that values set here will not be applied until the next call to SDL_UpdateJoysticks, which can either be called directly, or can be called indirectly through various other SDL APIs, including, but not limited to the following: SDL_PollEvent, SDL_PumpEvents, SDL_WaitEventTimeout, SDL_WaitEvent.

Note that when sending trigger axes, you should scale the value to the full range of Sint16. For example, a trigger at rest would have the value of SDL_JOYSTICK_AXIS_MIN.
