Improved Gamepad Support
We know some of you strongly prefer Controllers over Keyboard+Mouse, either out of comfort or accessibility reasons.
For this purpose, we overhauled how the gamepad interacts in-game to give you a proper tool to play with:
- Gamepad input is now converted to a circular pattern to improve handling experience and consistency.
- Implemented circular deadzone with configurable inner and outer in options menu
- Implemented fully customizable extra turn acceleration with amount, delay, acceleration and active zone (angle) settings.
We also worked on additional QoL features and fixes to improve overall gamepad experience:
- Improved gamepad/keyboard change detection
- Added and improved keybinding callouts for Gamepad
- Improved the navigation experience for in-game Character Selection
- Added multiple setting sliders for personalizing your gamepad experience
- Reworked Quick Chat for gamepad
Note: After this update you will need to customize your controls again.
