player control read joystick state

hi am i right in thinking that the default is right= right arrow on keyboard and so on for up down and left?

If this is the case does anyone know the default keyboard keys for the north east, south east, north west and south west keys?

There is no special keys for them, for up-right you press up and right together.

the reason why im asking is i want to code for both joystick and keyboard so do i just use the read joystick state?

Yes, use "Read joystick state" to get the direction the player is holding, no matter what control method the player is using - it's a confusingly named condition.

thanks that realy helps.
