Reset Shot problem and no private server?

[Davive]

Hello. bought this game today and i'm enjoying it so far! The building aspect is great!
I hope this could get fixed but i found out that you can keep reseting your shot with R so much so you can reset yourself to previous hole and get stuck there and have to skip hole.
also not really a "problem" per say but more or less just a suggestion for being able to make private servers so i can play with friends only similar to other minigolf games.

also i wish there was some way to cancel a shot with the "hold and drag" option. cos as of now, if you have your power all the way down. it counts as a shot even tho you didn't even move. a little annoying

Interesting bug with the shot resetting. I was able to somehow go in a circle so I was actually back on the correct hole. I'll look into this but since it's not game-breaking I can't promise a speedy fix.

You can reset your shot with the Hold and Drag option, the power just needs to be exactly all the way at 0. I could add a bit of leniency to this so it doesn't need to be so exact.

And all sessions are actually private/friends-only. The player base was never large enough to really warrant public lobbies.

ahh ok. thanks for the reply!
btw about "reseting shot" even when it's all the way down, it's like 50 to 50 chance of it either canceling or shooting i noticed. Also unrelated but how would i get a controller working in the game? does it have to be a xbox controller to work? (tried it with PS5 controller)

It seemed to work pretty consistently for me when I tried it. But even a small twitch when you let go of the mouse button could cause your power to increase a little and make it not reset your swing.

I've actually never tested with a PlayStation controller, but I would think it would work because the inputs are programmed to be compatible for many controllers. The only issue would be that the pictures for the buttons on some menus would still show the Xbox controller buttons, because I haven't set up the images for the PlayStation controller buttons.

i guess another way of reseting your shot would be to press the right mouse button to cancel it as you hold the left mouse button. i'm actually getting Steam Deck so that's why i'm curious as to if this game would be playable with a controller

Hi David, since v1.03 controller support is excellent - we are having a few wobbles with 4 XBOX ONE controllers but it is being worked on by the Devs, they have been brilliant at fixing any issues :)

Also, using controllers, we don't have the Reset shot issue, you just pull the power down to zero, then you can move, we've had no issues at all with that.

yup all works! tested it before and all is working as intended. This works actually good on Steam Deck too! :)
Much thanks to the devs for fixing the issues :D
