How can I understand which of the gamepads has been disconnected?

If a player disconnects from the game, then I must remove all the sprites associated with the index of this player (gamepad). But how to find out which of the four(gamepads count) indexes was disabled?

It seems to me that the inability to get a gamepad index creates problems :(

Anyone?

If this cannot be implemented by means of C3, is it possible in the future to get this option in the next updates?

Does this work? On disconnect - set var to gamepad.index

Or something like that.

I have never done myself but isn’t it just like touch

when the user presses start or another button to enter the game cant you record the ID of that joypad and asign it to the player sprites UI icons etc

then if that joypad is disconnected

you can just test for the index of that joypad

when joypad disconnected

is joypad index xxx

then do whatever

I think this is a feature request, the Gamepad plugin doesn't allow you to know which Gamepad is being used.
