Name
JoyAxisY -- return state of joystick's y axis (V10.0)
Synopsis
state = JoyAxisY(port[, idx])
Function
This function returns the current y axis state of the joystick at the port specified by port. The y axis state is returned in the range of -1000 to 1000. The optional argument idx can be used to specify the index of the joystick to use in case there are multiple joysticks on a controller. Joystick indices start at 0.

port can range from 0 to the number of joysticks currently plugged in minus 1. You can find out the number of joysticks currently available using the CountJoysticks() function. Please note that under AmigaOS, port 0 addresses the standard joystick port although this is port 1 on classic Amiga hardware. Hollywood switches these ports for cross-platform consistency where port 0 shall always refer to the default joystick.

Inputs
port
port number (usually 0 for the standard Joystick port)
