How to set sprint to toggle on controller?
Am I missing something? I checked menu but did not see an option for it. When playing with controller, to run (sprint), I have to press analog stick down and forward and keep it pressed for the entire time I want to run. This is horrible with analog stick. Pretty much every game ever made has a toggle for this, where you only have to press it once and not hold it.
Any fixes?
I checked some ini but could not find anything.

There currently isn't a toggle sprint option.

So...the game is effectively unplayable on a controller. How the hell did they miss this?

Well, you can probably rig something up using the steam controller api.

But... toggle sprint could be rather bad in this game regardless due to the boost boots existing.

Also a stamina system in place. Don't really want to be constantly sprinting.

It is not about constant sprinting. Even with toggle you can obviously stop sprinting again when you see stamina getting low just by pressing the stick again.

As it is, sprint is basically unusable, and when I am chased by three mutants low on health, it is pretty damn stupid.

But good advice about the steam input, maybe it is possible to reconfigure somehow.

Toggle sprint should definitely be a thing.
I have severe tendonitis and even though I'm playing on my desktop, it's very difficult to quickly run when necessary.

I'm pretty sure you can manually create a toggle (click button to hold left shift) using the Steam Input configurator. I should probably do that, as I'm getting tired of holding down the LB button all the time. I wish they would implement a toggle option in-game though.

They really need to implement a lean toggle option as well.
