A Short Hike

XBox Controller - Pressing B randomly opens menu?
This is actually for the GOG version of the game, but I'm posting here for extra visibility.

I'm having an issue with my XBox Wireless controller on Win 10, where pressing B will sometimes open the menu (the same as pressing Y). This is incredibly annoying, and it means that I can't fish, since it opens the menu sometimes instead of reeling in the fish.

I'm using the official wireless adapter for Windows.

I've tested the controls via the menu, and in the test screen they appear to be detected fine. It's just that when playing the game, it acts as though B is interpreted as Y about half the time.

Has anyone come across this before? It's a shame, since I'm enjoying playing the game otherwise, but this is frustrating.

For anybody reading this, I've managed to find a workaround for the problem, which was to rebind the keyboard controls to some other keys. So far, I haven't had the issue come up again in about 15 minutes of testing.

So, not a complete fix, but at least it stops the menu from appearing all the time.

That was happening to me too in exactly the same situation, I had steam running in the background and when I closed it it stopped opening the menu with B, then I started steam again and the issue came back, then I disabled steam input for Xbox controllers and the issue went away, but then it came back anyway after a while.

I don't know exactly what is the problem but with having steam closed has been enough until now.
