i2c analog joy stick glitches

[Duhjoker]

hi guys

I'm having some problems with using a feather wing joys with my huzzah 32. I'm trying to implement a timer that repeats the analog movement so an object can be moved on screen constantly while the stick is being used. If I use the adafruit seesaw example bits as they stand into my game program every thing is fine. But I can only get the character to move one space at a time. When I try to implement the repeat action every thing goes haywire.

Up and right can be accessed at game start but I have to access my menu function before down can be used. Left cant be used at all. Ive retested the joy boards over and over and all works. I even rotated the screen so I could use the twin joy but it has the same glitch

Does any one have a clue why this is happening?

Anybody have any clues? Is it hardware or maybe using elapsed millis? I2C?
