Controller

[Howlor]

The controller does not have full support. You can't access the inventory and the pause menu does not work with controllers. Also, you can only select your first 4 items in your hotbar to use with your controller without manually going into your inventory with a mouse anc changing them!

You can access the inventory. Hold the B button to bring up a menu and hover over the 'show inventory' option.
What do you mean the pause menu doesn't work? Just hit the start button. The cursor can be moved with the left thumbstick. Although I'll admit the game unpauses itself upon entering the options or tribe menus.
You can also select items 5-10 by holding LB and hovering over the item of choice.
I think if we give the developers some time they'll eventually make customizable controls and the controller more robust to use. Like, being able to use the controller on the inventory menu without having to use the cursor. But I'm sure it's low on their priority list.

I have a good time playing with the controller. I just use the kb for some commands.

I am having this problem too. This only started for me on the 190.1 update. 190.0 the PS4 controller was working fine with my game. Working off of a Mac if that help the devs figure out what this problem is.

Same problem here with a 360 controller on a mac. Can walk and look around, use the action key with 'a', but that's it.

The keys on a PC are reset every few updates as well. Just rebind your keys to the ones that you want and you can play again. I have to change my keyboard keys every 2 weeks or so...

you guys know there is a prog called x360ce for this? Works like a charm, with all gamepads.

The fact is that you can't costumize the controller button.You have just to plug usb your pad( or bluetooth) and playing with the default setup for controller.Since it happened i can move the cursor with L3 without using the mouse (maybe it was better if you can just select items moving on them instead of using the same a cursor but with the joypad this time) but it's a double cursor on the screen cause there's already one for the mouse :)
"Fortunately"" i'm not playing online because since i cannot play at thise time my dinos were starving to death!!!
A quickly patch to fix this please???

My experience with 360 controller :
- default Y button is 'E' key, i'd prefer 'F' for quick inventory access. Quite a pain to display the wheel to access inventory or accidentally ride,start/stop fabricator, generator etc... is not pushed long enough
- inventory management : Yes it's lame, but I'm confident they will do something great in time
- quick access bar : No just no. 1,2,3,4 are just fine, there should be at least 5,6,7,8 with some other button pressed. This quick access wheel is just not useful at all

So for now I have my KB for quick bar > 4, F key, chat and my mouse for inventory. not ideal but works fine

Edit : 'B' button for reload, humm just never used it, I think it's some default UE4 setting

I'm having the same issue with my ps3 controller...

For the 360 controller, select is used to chat
