I am attempting to wire a SPDT switch and am having a bit of trouble, namely that I cannot seem to get an signal out of either of my two analog pins.
Currently I am attempting to make my SPDT switch send a High Signal to one of two different analog in pins and in doing so. Have it rotate a servo motor in one of three positions 0 Degrees 90 Degrees and 180 Degrees.

According to this paper The Human eye can rotate down vertialcally 30 Deg, and upwards 25deg and left to right 35 off of center

The analog smoothing is to help with motor longevity, and from the servos twitching. When this was impletmented the Servos for X and Y began to act as one on the Y axis.
Turns out both values were over writing each other so a new set of values had to be created JoyYval and JoyXval these took the place of JoyY and JoyX. These new values
did were used for the real computing.The Previous Values were set as now place holders for reserving pins.
