Bug report. Joystick Axes not being read

Axel Kolle · Post by **Axel Kolle** » Mon Aug 08, 2011 11:16 pm

Twice now in XC05 I have had joysticks not working at all. The only fix seems to be to leave the game and come back. Setup is functional and has been working correctly most of the time. This could be either an issue with the core or logitech drivers which do not like something about Allegiance. I use Logitech G 940 controllers, always worked in the past.

I checked and mouse control is disabled, so I could not have hit that by accident.

Let me know what I need to bring in terms of documentation, screenshots and so on if it happens again.

Thanks

not a core issue, r5 issue

Ok, thanks for the feedback. Any further action to be taken on my part?

when you were in the state of joystick not working, did you try to switch to mouse control to seee if that worked? There is a known issue where you just continue flying in one direction regardless of input, but it wasn't necessarily tied to joysticks.

hit esc twice.

This fixes it usually... unless you have a deeper problem.

Will try that and report back. Seems easy enough... I do not think the problem is deeper than that, to be sure. There is only so much that can go wrong reading a joystick axis. In theory which is a rather gary area, to be sure
