    So i have this:

    And this is how the axis work:

    Left stick X axis (A0)
    Left stick Y axis (A1)
    Right stick X axis (A2)
    Left trigger (A3)
    Right trigger (A4)
    Right stick Y axis (A5)

    Found this out by using:
    http://html5gamepad.com/
    upload_2018-8-29_20-55-55.png

    But BeamNG sees this:
    upload_2018-8-29_20-56-36.png

    xaxis and yaxis are the left stick (x and y)
    rzaxis is y axis right stick, zaxis is x axis left stick

    but the left trigger also does rzaxis
    and right trigger does yaxis

    Also fyi, button8 is activated whenever left stick is moved at all, and button9 is activated whenever right stick is moved

    Anyone have any clue as to how to test this:

    If devs want to buy this hardware for testing, here it is:

    Go to the Windows control panel, open the Game Controllers window, and verify what each axis is doing there.

    If it's the same as you see in BeamNG.drive's Options > Controls > Hardware menu, then what you see is how the device works. To fix that, you will have to check the manual provided by the manufacturer and see if there's any option to change the controller behaviour.
    If it's not the same as in BeamNG.drive's menu, then that looks like a bug on the game's side, so let me know if that's the case and I can take a look at it.

    two axis show up, X and Y (left stick) and Z axis and rotation (right stick). The triggers do not have an axis in the control panel, and there is no overlapping;there is in BeamNGThe trigger axis is shown in the HTML5 game controller test though.

    This is the first time I've seen something like this. Could you please record a video of what happens in the control panel, and what happens in beamng in comparison? Thanks!

    Also try running beamng.drive directly from its installation folder, and having closed Steam beforehand (in other words, run beamng without steam). Just to make sure
