Controller issues

[His Infernal Majesty]

Whilst using the Steel Series XL Controller which works fine on every other game, this game when i hit A to join a game, creates two new players. also does it when im in single player mode.
help?

Nobody has any input on this not even the creators.

Hey, sorry the comment must have slipped through the cracks. We use a plugin called InControl for our controller management, and it handles a wide variety of controllers well. The first thing I can suggest is using a third-party software like x360ce. What kind of other games are you playing that work with the controller? It would be useful to know if they're Unity games and what version they use (we can figure that out if you give us names).

bastion, battleblock theater, binding of isaac, dark souls, darkest dungeon, deadlight, dont starve, hotline miamis, magicka, mark of the ninja, metal slugs, monaco, nidhogg, nuclear throne, rymd resa, risk of rain, rogue legacy, stardew valley, street fighter 4/5, strider, supermeat boy, transistor trine,

are like the games that accept this controller.

just downloaded and followed x360ce and put my settings and input to default x360 controller, joined game, controller registers as two inputs still i keep spawning multiple players still : <

having issues with this game and my controller as well. it's a logitech chillstream and it works just fine on other games, running on mac os with the latest 360Controller driver. the driver settings pick up every input just fine. it's just on this game that i can't i get it to work.

Unfortunately that did not work but thanks, that was a different solution possibility that may work for others.

I have the same problem with the Stratus XL controller in this game.

I actually have seen the same problem in other games with other controllers. The problem seems to happen in stuff like the Lego games with my logitech controllers, especially if I try to use a few at once.
In Chicken Horse, though, it only seems to happen with the Steel Series, and happens every time. I didn't try Toasty's suggestion yet since I don't really like to try big picture mode, but I'll probably try it sometime :)

This is old I know but something I have had success in other games with is in the steam overlay (big picture), under controller settings, setting steam input to "forced off" (not sure what the non-big picture equivalent is) can prevent this controller duplication. This would be caused by the game recognizing both the "steam input" and also reading the controller directly.

Thank you @Potassium_Ion, indeed UCH started acting up controller-wise with 2 mouse cursors appearing when using only one controller.
It turns out UCH is indeed recognizing both the steam input AND the PS5 controller, so you need to disable 'steam input' for this game.

Devs, please fix this ;)
