Any DS4 experts in here? I use a DS4 in ED (along with rudder pedals and head tracker, but they're not relevant to this discussion), mostly with the default bindings but with a few extra things I've added. So, for example, boost is on circle, and landing gear is on circle+down which has absolutely never once caused me to faceplant into the back of the station, no, not at all. But I've learned how to not do that, which will be important to remember later. I've added throttle preset bindings, so circle+R1 is 100% throttle and circle+L1 is 0% throttle. These work perfectly well. The problem comes when I try to use R2 and L2 in a combo. I've bound circle+R2 to 75% but when I use this combo it seems to think I'm doing both a boost and a 75% throttle. Same with circle+L2 which I've bound to 50% throttle - I'll always boost when I try this combo no matter how careful I am, and as I mentioned I can always avoid accidentally boosting when trying to deploy landing gear so it's not a user input error. In any case I have the same problem with square+R2/L2 (heat sink and chaff respectively) - whenever I try to use one of these combos it uses both the square input (deploy weapons) and the square+R2/L2 input. And only on combos which use R2 or L2.
Is this something in the game? I have to use Steam to get the DS4 to be recognised at all, so maybe Steam has something not working properly? Any hints on where I should start looking?
