Any way to use left stick in crafting menu?

[Andrehmerand]

So yeah I started using a controller like a week ago and I know... Keyboard and mouse are better but huh yeah. Is there any way to use the crafting menu with the left stick?

[hhh2]

No.  I think it's because the crafting menu can't be worked by the same keys or buttons that move the player.  And that is intentional, because one goal of the crafting menu redesign was for it to be able to be open without forbidding movement.

There is one way, but you'll have to find that mod, if it exists.

I think it must really fry console player's brains to use one analogue stick to move their character and the other to move a grid cursor.
