controller inputs are finnicky

[Sock]

I'm trying to play with a nintendo switch controller with gyro and the xbox input option keeps breaking. I somehow got it to work without issue the first time I booted up the game, but then when I restarted I couldn't get it to work for a while. AT one point it worked again but now it's refusing to respect my joystick again. Does anybody have any explanation or workaround for what's going on???

game does not have native controller support afaik, you will need to either use steaminput and tweak settings in it (which still might not be enough to keep it stable), or just use a mouse + keyboard

Q: Will there be native gamepad support?
A: As of now, (11/12/2024), there is currently no native gamepad support. You will need to use a Steam Input template, Joy2Key or something similar for now. I will look into implementing proper native support in the future.

well no, that's not entirely accurate. it has "analog stick axis type" as an option in settings, and when I clicked it, it worked with the analog sticks. The problem is that it inconsistently works instead of just not working at all, which annoys me way more

what do you currently have that setting on, out of curiosity? iirc someone else who had a similar issue fixed it by setting that to emulate wasd

"In settings, under Input, you have to make sure "Analog Stick Axis Type" is set to WASD (8 directional)...despite both XBOX and Playstation 4 being options, they don't actually work"

regardless, the game doesnt have full controller support yet, but as the faq stated they are trying to make it compatible

i think the current setting is more of a test than anything else, not expected to be all that reliable
