# This script works around a broken y axis for my Thrustmaster Cougar throttle.
# The y axis reads off center, this works around it by scaling the reported value around an offset
# It's not perfect, but it makes the joystick usable at least.
# The script works by grabbing exclusive access to the real device and proxying its events
# to a new virtual device, applying value fixes to the appropriate events

# The ID of my broken 20 year old Thrustmaster Cougar
