    If your on this forum you may know of the difficulty of steering a vehicle finely using w a s d keys. I am a bit of an R/C enthusiast and have 1 or 2 car and aircraft controllers lying around, I attempted to hook up my car controller to the computer with a simulation cable I have. The game recognises its a controller and gives me the calibration input boxes, but nothing happens when I use the remote. I tried my second controller (4ch aircraft controller) and the game saw it and saw all the inputs I gave it. When key binding the inputs to the cars function, on clicking apply to confirm the binding it doesn't bind. I believe I'm doing everything the same as when I bound it from the arrow keys to w a s d and I have deleted the previous binding before inputting the controller, so I don't know what's going wrong.
    Thanks for reading,

    I'm having the exact same issue, but I'm using an actual gaming wheel (Genius Twin Wheel F1) that has previously worked with an older version of BeamNG and inputmaps.

    Are your issues happening with 0.4.0.4, or with 0.4.0.5? Please make sure to try with the latest version, there were several bugfixes for bindings creation.

    I'm having the same issue, PlayStation 2 controller with USB adapter. It's picking up my controller for sure, I can see my inputs register on the hardware screen, and it detects when I press the control during binding. The problem is that it doesn't bind when I hit apply. Definitely using 0.4.0.6, tried a full Steam cache integrity verification and everything :confused:
