Mod That Adds Gamepad Controls? (Improved Beyond Stock)


Recommended Posts

A little bit ago there used to be a mod called "Fly-By-Wire" mod and it added the ability to create custom gamepad controls for your crafts and even have multiple controls schemes which was great, and I want the mod but a quick search on CKAN and Spacedock proves useless and beyond that, has it been updated for 1.1 or all the way up to 1.1.3? I had some issues with it in the past but I'll deal with them depending on what bugs I encounter.

So, is it still around? Or is there a new mod.

Note I want this mod since the stock Gamepad detection mechanics in KSP are horrible, it doesn't detect movement of either analog controls making flight controls impossible.

Stock flight controls are binary; either they're on or off, and no in-between. I feel your pain, brother.  I bought myself a $200 flight stick only to find $200 of disappointment.
I'll use it later in another game, I guess.

now to answer your question, I do not know of any mod that addresses the problem, but perhaps you can find a thrid-party app online that can translate joystick input to keyboard input, and set the keystroke rate to your joystick input, eg, more tilt = faster keystroke
I think the app is called "Joy2Key" but I haven't used it in ages, last time I used it was when I used to play Maplestory many years ago, but had a cast on my hand making normal keyboard playing difficult.

There WAS a mod in the past but I'm uncertain as to its status and it worked for joysticks and gamepads.
