Help with Finding an Easy Joystick Template

Soderminal

Hello. I am trying to implement a Joystick into my game that would control the Player. The only problem is that I have downloaded a lot of Joystick Templates (like the one from Deep Blue Apps, the Basic Controller-Template from GameSalad, etc.), and all of them seem hard to "copy and paste" (or add all the Attributes from the template to my game, then type in all of the rules, etc.). I was wondering if anyone had a Easy or Simplified Joystick Template that is easy to implement and doesn't need a lot of Attributes. Thanks:)

Alright Guys, since I posted this Post, I have been thinking about what a Joystick would look like on my Scene, and I've realized that it would take up too much space. So I am going to use a Tap-to-Move/Actor-Moves-to-Touch Control System. Thank you guys for all of your answers and for your help! This Question has been Answered:)

(Wait, I want to mark this comment as the Answer to my Question so people won't think that I still need help. But the only options are the Quote, Insightful, etc. options...Hmmm...)

GameSalad comes with some templates that have four different joystick controls. I believe you can find these in Official Cross-Platform Controller Template

simple replace your actors with theirs and you will have a great working controller. That's what I did for my game Mad Pirates.

Alternatively DBA have a really good template for free:

8 Way Controller Template!

@willkesling‌ I really like the Second Joystick in the Cross-Platform Controller Template (the one with the ship), but the thing is I want to transfer that Joystick to my game. I have been working on my game since December 2013, and I don't really want to transfer my actors over to their template (also my game is in Portrait Mode, not Landscape Mode). Thanks for your answer and for replying so quickly!

@SmokeyAce73‌ Thanks for reply so quick to my post, Mr. SmokeyAce! But the problem I have with @DeepBlueApps‌ 8-Way Controller Template is that it has a lot of Attributes and a lot of Rules (which I would have to manually type in). I guess I want a simple Joystick template because I'm lazy and don't want to type in every Attribute and Rule (which might take a while) . Thanks for your answer!
