SDL_HapticPeriodic
A structure that contains a template for a periodic effect.
Data Fields
| Header | ||
| Uint16 | type | the shape of the waves; see Remarks for details | 
| direction | direction of the effect (relative to the user) | |
| Replay | ||
| Uint32 | length | duration of the effect | 
| Uint16 | delay | delay before starting the effect | 
| Trigger | ||
| Uint16 | button | button that triggers the effect | 
| Uint16 | interval | how soon it can be triggered again after button | 
| Periodic | ||
| Uint16 | period | period of the wave | 
| Sint16 | magnitude | peak value; if negative, equivalent to 180 degrees extra phase shift | 
| Sint16 | offset | mean value of the wave | 
| Uint16 | phase | positive phase shift given by hundredth of a degree; see Remarks for details | 
| Envelope | ||
| Uint16 | attack_length | duration of the attack | 
| Uint16 | attack_level | level at the start of the attack | 
| Uint16 | fade_length | duration of the fade | 
| Uint16 | fade_level | level at the end of the fade |

Remarks
A periodic effect consists of a wave-shaped effect that repeats itself over time. The type determines the shape of the wave and the other parameters determine the dimensions of the wave.

type may be one of the following:
| SDL_HAPTIC_SINE |   __      __      __      __ | 
| SDL_HAPTIC_TRIANGLE |   /\    /\    /\    /\    /\ | 
| SDL_HAPTIC_SAWTOOTHUP |   /|  /|  /|  /|  /|  /|  /| | 
| SDL_HAPTIC_SAWTOOTHDOWN | \  |\  |\  |\  |\  |\  |\  | | 
phase is given by hundredths of a degree, meaning that giving the phase a value of 9000 will displace it 25% of its period. Here are sample values:
| 0 | No phase displacement | 
| 9000 | Displaced 25% of its period | 
| 18000 | Displaced 50% of its period | 
| 27000 | Displaced 75% of its period | 
| 36000 | Displaced 100% of its period, same as 0, but 0 is preferred |
