Could you please update/fix your Steam Input as you've got the - oh gosh I'm not going to be able to explain this properly! Let's try anyways!

In the Steam controller configuration app for non Steam Input configured games one can select between 2 different controller/Gyro functions. One is Joystick Camera the other is Joystick Deflection. Camera is free movement: you tilt the device and the translated 2D value is buffered (eased in/out) to the joysticks position. Therefore you get a nice smooth movement no matter where you're facing. It's relative to the device itself.

Deflection is wild, unfortunately, and has its place but it sets a fixed position to (for the sake of argument, as this randomises each time you load the game) North, with the device flat too. Any shift from that angle or position is like holding the analogue stick away from that spot.

What you have with your game is the latter when it comes to Flying. So you can't have nice flying gyro funtimes (and it really is), or nice camera shifting funtimes (which is really good when leaving a planet!).

Please Ji... Please Hello Games can you fix it for me? Can you loosen up the strict gyroscope rules for the Flying Steam Input category?

there's a 3rd function that uses the mouse which is very useful too. Ideally I'd like this supported when flying too, but at the very least I'd like Joystick Camera support returned. Because it did used to support it, but an update last year broke it.

I flipping love my customised controller config for NMS. Shortcuts on the touchpads, super-precise movements when building. etc :) :derpy: :content: :cool:

This is NOT a message from the devs. Someone copy/pasted the dev's notes for free internet points. HG had nothing to do with this thread & they're not reading the responses.

"Fixed an issue that could cause players to pop to the surface while swimming on moons."

Awesome! Now if only the issue of unwanted underwater effects in underwater bases could be addressed, I would play this game so much more.

Yeah four pages of folks actually thinking the devs placed this here and might read it. Not sure this wasn't a total disservice to the community what with folks thinking it is a pinned thread.
Have issues, only real meaningful action is a note to HG Zendesk. Everything else is just forum chatter, not useless but no access to devs.

I'm still experiencing the Solar ship fabrication bug. Reported it to HG today.
