Joystick Stopped Working?

Questions & Answers

Hi,

I have little experience with the Unity input manager so I’m somewhat convinced I’ve somehow broken something.

Yesterday I tried to set up my game with joystick controls. All the buttons work fine, but I couldn’t get the control stick to work. I figured I had it configured incorrectly so I looked at one of my older projects that used the same controller with a similar set up. But the control stick doesn’t work there either! So I tried a 3rd program but that one also stopped working, and the control stick input causes another part to move as if the rules got switched around.

So basically I am wondering if I could have done something stupid to mess this up? I’ve reset Unity, unplugged and re plugged the controller, restarted my computer, etc. But the control stick just no longer works. All the other buttons work fine and the control stick used to work, so I am at a loss.

Any ideas?

In the unity editor go to Edit → Project Settings → Input

It shows all of the possible joystick axis there, I’d suggest just writing a debug script that prints something to console for all 20ish of the axis to see which one your joystick is using, and then rewrite your games off of that axis.
