Controller bug?

[kyut530]

Hey- so I just started playing again and when I start the game it's fine. However when I die and start a new run, my controller won't move, when the Start button is pressed it creates a buddy (for player 2?) and I can move my player. Anyone else having this issue or have solved this?

Your controller is probably detected as player 2's, try unplugging-replugging the controller or restarting your computer.
Also note that if you started the game using the keyboard, player 1's controls are set for keyboard, therefore connecting a controller will get a second player in the game.

That's odd because I only play using the controller. It corrects itself after unplugging-replugging during gameplay without restarting the computer/laptop...but only for that run

I have the same problem and don't know how to fix it ...

seems like there is no fix for it.

Even if I try to change to controller in the main menu, it just starts to freez. It only worked one time out of ten

yeah ive been trying to use a nintendo switch gamecube controller and all the options in the controls screen are blank. the plus button is back, b is to use item, x does nothing, main stick shoots. almost everything is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, when i use it, the steam controller wont even appear nor work. and keyboard works perfectly. other people have the same issue, also attempting to set the configs from the inputconfig.dat file does ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.

Found some way to fix it:

In main meu, select your save file (probably thats when you see the "not found controller" or "set your controller binds" or sth like that). Then go to options, and select controls at top.

Here, I had 3 options:

-Keyboard
-Controller (*your controller's name should appear here)
-XInput controlle...

Now, you have to select the SECOND optiond and... bind the conrols with your controller just by hitting "enter" (keyboard) in each action and pressing the input you want (joystick up for move up... you know).
I know it's not the coolest thing to do, but it worked for me. Hope it helps!
