Fightsticker makes changes to the structure and operation of the original program. The differences are detailed below.
Users are not required to have Python installed on their system, as Fightsticker comes in a bundle ready to be installed by the user on their preferred operating system.
Upon starting the program, users are greeted with a user-friendly interface from which they can launch the layout of their choice.
Within the preferences window, users can configure the deadzones for analog sticks and triggers. Therefore, the original deadzone configuration scene accessible through pressing the guide button on the controller has been removed. Additionally, users can select custom configuration files in the preferences window. Through these, users can select custom images for the background and buttons as well as alter the placement of buttons as they appear upon being activated.
The default layouts feature an all-green background, as they are intended to be chroma-keyed out using streaming software.
Configuration files are now stored in the preferred configuration area for the
operating system on which the program is run, as opposed to within a local
theme directory. Within this configuration directory, layouts and images are
stored in the layouts and images directories, respectively.
While the original program used a vendored version of pyglet, Fightsticker
uses the latest version and keeps it as a separate dependency. The package
platformdirs is used to manage the storage of configuration files.
The fightstick.py and fightstick_hb.py files have been combined. There are
now TraditionalScene and LeverlessScene classes which inherit from a
general LayoutScene class where common methods between the two layouts are
stored.
