To the dev: There's a gamepad button assignment bug

[Implojin]

When going to the control page from the main menu, if you click "Joystick" and begin to enter your desired control scheme, the game will register multiple entries at once, making it thoroughly difficult to assign them properly.

It seems as though this game was just released today, so some bugs can be expected, but it would be nice if this were fixed.

Hello. I'm sorry for that bug and I'll try to fix it as soon as possible. Can you tell me which platform do you use and send settings.json (after configuring joystick) to [e-mail]?

[Implojin]

Windows 7 x64, I'll send you a copy of settings.json if you like, but I haven't been able to configure it properly and just started playing with keyboard instead.

I'm trying to use an xbox 360 controller, if that helps.

Does the problem still appear, if you hit any gamepad button before trying to bind stuff?

@Smaxx hello there :) Well, the problem is analog axis jittering. SFML returns axis position in range [-100..100]. And I check direction of the axis by comparing it with -1.0 or 1.0 (I mean less than -1.0 or greater than 1.0). That was a bad decision. I increased it to -80.0 and 80.0. Have to check it at home (no gamepad at work). And probably post an update this evening if everything is ok.

@Implojin thank you for your positive feedback and bug report! Poeple like you make games better :)

Hi, I ran into the problem where only the buttons, not axes, would consistently doubly register. This might be due to the new feature of Steam where it lets you customize any controller buttons. I registered a Xbox One controller with Steam and it seems like while Steam is running, the controller registers as two devices at once: "XInput Controller" and "Steam Controller". The observation is consistent with the settings file, which gets some bindings registered to controller 0 and others to controller 1.
