Extended Controller support


Recommended Posts

I'd like to see support for Controllers & Keyboard/mouse at the same time. I've always found crafting easier with a mouse, but combat easier with a controller, and would enjoy the option to use both simultaneously, but that doesn't seem to work for me. Is there a way to do that currently, or implement this in the future?

 

I have an external program that helps with it, but it would be great if it was in game options.

I'll second that.

 

I have a mod in singleplayer that does that but as far as I can tell there is no such thing for DST. Which is a shame because exploring the world, fighting and gathering are much more enjoyable with a controller whereas base-building and managing multiple stashes/inventory is much quicker and more precise with a mouse. Especially planting a field of berry bushes, grass, etc. is basically impossible to do efficiently with a controller.

 

Gameplay-wise it's my no.1 concern to see this implemented.

Yayyy I'm not the only one playing this way ! I use a software called joy-to-key so I'm able to walk, fight, pick up things, mine and chop trees...open map, zoom in and out, rotate camera, see who's on the server, etc... with a controller while the game thinks I'm using mouse and keyboard. This is very pleasant as it allows to enjoy both comfort and efficiency when I craft, cook and use items from inventory with the mouse. I've changed the force attack from ctrl+f to just f it works like a charm and has never been inconvenient, I suggest you guys do this.

 

I guess it'd be good if this was implemented but really I'm fine with the solution I found.

Yes but with joy-to-key ... i guess you are not getting proper analog movement but just up/down/left/ right and the diagonals.

It would be great if they can implement the Controller + Mouse/Keyboard combo, it sholdn't be that hard.
