Hey so this is like the third update of hinput or something... The first one since it's been on itch though. Yay.
A few dozen people have downloaded the package across the various platforms that I uploaded it to (mostly the Unity Asset Store), but I will keep updating it to try and get some more traction. I've got the feeling that I can make something good and useful, and I want to share that with other people !
Regarding the changelog, well, it's all in the title : I added vibration to hinput.
Gamepad rumble is a really technical thing to do, because it is not handled by Unity. That kind of stuff is way beyond my level so I had to use a third party library. Unfortunately, the only one that's free and widely available is called XInput, and it only allows for rumble on four controllers, and only on Windows computers.
I had originally decided not to add vibration to hinput until I find a way to implement a better version. After some thorough research I'm pretty sure that I won't find one, so I decided that one OS is better than none ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Oh, and I also improved the tutorial a bit (it's called "learn" now).
That's it for now, see you at version 1.3 !
