public enum GamepadButton

A button on a gamepad, named by position rather than by legend.

No guide page documents this yet — the page shows what the code says about itself.

Remarks

South, East, West and North are the four face buttons by where they sit in the diamond. Naming them A/B or Cross/Circle would embed one vendor's legends in the engine and then require a translation table for every other — including Nintendo, where A and B are swapped relative to Xbox, which is exactly the confusion the positional names remove. What the button is *labelled* is a presentation question, answered by GamepadKind when a prompt needs drawing.
