    I think the deadzone for the joysticks need to be raised about 15% higher then it is I keep accidentally turning when the stick is barely even moved, ive tried differant controllers.

    It would be nice to be able to activate slow mo and change it using the controller.

    We plan to add adjustability to the menu. For now you can edit the deadzone in the inputmap by hand with a text editor. Find the GUID of your controller that it says in the console, open that inputmap in \scripts\client\inputmaps\ and find the deadzone thing. $gp_deadzone = "-0.15 0.15";

    0.15 is 15% (the current default). So if you wanted 15% more deadzone, change it to "-0.30 0.30";

    any chance there would be an option to permanently set the dead zone without having it lost everytime we update the game?
    I am asking this because there like 5-8 input map files just for my 360 controller and i have to do all of them everytime i update =(

    If you set the file to read-only it should stop the updater from overwriting it. Or you could move your custom inputmap into a "custom" folder. Make a folder in \game\scripts\client\inputmaps\ called custom. I think it searches there first, and uses a custom inputmap if you have one.
