Controller re-binding bug "[button] IS ALREADY IN USE CANNOT BE REPLACED."

Hello EHG team,

I recognize stabilizing the servers is top priority at the moment, but wanted to get this issue on the board. I use an Xbox controller and keep encountering this issue where I can’t bind the X or Y buttons to anything. I basically get the error in the picture below.

I have checked to ensure these buttons are not bound anywhere else further down the list. I also found it odd because when there is a button conflict, normally it gives you the option to replace the existing bind, but that’s not the case here. I have also tried restoring keybinds to default and removing / adding the controller but without luck.

I have tried this with both the official Xbox controller (current gen) and Razer Wolverine V2 controller (Xbox-type controller) and both have this same issue.

Hi,

Same issue here, very frustrating

same here, i also think its unusal that it defaults to X>B>LT>RB>RT… these games always use something more like X>Y>B>LB>RB>RT

Same here, tested on a PS4 controller with and without Steam Input. On PS4 controllers the unbindable buttons are Square and Triangle. Controller support still needs a lot of work, but I hope the team can work on prioritizing this fix for controller players, especially since there are passives that care about which position skills are allocated in.

Please fix this BS I want skill 1+2 LT RT and 3,4,5 A>X>Y

Either doesn’t accept input or says it’s in use when it’s not…

I’ve got the same issue too :frowning: I’ve found it’s worse than expected - if you rebind whatever controller options you can (excluding X, which can’t be rebound!), you lose access to control the game with the Esc menu and have to Alt-F4 out.

Also, I’d like to add that I went a step further, after it didn’t replace “Y” for me I thought ok, it cannot be replaced so removing it than adding the bind I wanted should be fine as it’s not a replace but a brand new assignment, but boy was I wrong. It did remove “Y”, still gave me the same it’s irreplaceable msg as well as when I try to assign “Y” again to Minion attack, apart from I don’t have Minion attack as a function anymore. It’s gone!

Fixed for me with Patch 1.0.2, thank you devs!
