See the Python reference of this logic brick in SCA_JoystickSensor.
The Joystick Sensor triggers whenever the joystick moves. It also detects events on a range of ancillary controls on the joystick device (hat, buttons, etc.). More than one joystick may be used (see “Index”). The exact layout of the joystick controls will depend on the make and model of joystick used.
