XBox One Controller Tip

[SocraticMammal]

If you play XBox or use a XBox controller on PC here is a tip that will give you more button mappings.

By default, clicking the left control stick puts you in "Alternate Control Mode" If you don't use it, change the setting from "Toggle" to "Hold" then you can assign buttons to "Left Stick + A", "Left Stick + B", etc...

You can't seem to unbind the left stick completely but changing it to Hold makes this usable.

The only time I ever used Alt Control Mode was landing, but there are "Landing Overrides" in the control scheme now that activate when you lower your gear that I found work better anyway.

You could also just set up a modifier button to hold while pressing the other buttons.

I think we are saying the same thing, I was just adding that since you can't seem to unbind left stick changing it to Hold instead of toggle lets you use it as a modifier without constantly toggling the control mode.

If you are referring to something different that I'm missing can you clarify?

Thanks.

If you use the XBOX elite controller and then use reWASD (google it), you now have more options for button mapping that you won't know what to with them all, even with all the hot key options for ED.

I think we are talking about the same thing, I just don't use the Alternate Control Mode setting in-game. I just set the controller mappings in Elite.
