Joystick Button 0 Starts a new Instance of the Game

PTrottier

To whom it may concern,

When running the game, the button 0 on my joystick triggers running cmdline: "path/to/executable" "--path" "path/to/game". I was under the impression that this was a setting in the Project Settings > Input Map and in this case "ui_accept" (which maps button 0) but the "Enter" and "Space" keys don't behave this way. Is there any way to disable this behaviour?

Best regards,

Patrick

Do you using any hotkey software running on background ? I'd believe it can be leftover from prototyping where you used Input.is_joy_button_pressed() instead of actions. Also, did you was doing any experiments with joystick input and executables in past ? Also it will be good to tell us if you are on Win, Linux or OSX. Actually, you don't know if it was triggered by GoDot, right ? I think it can be software allowing you to bind action to keys, something like AutoHotkey.

No, this occurs on different joysticks and on a variety of computers running Windows and Linux alike, needless to say, it feels like it is configuration agnostic. I believe it is triggered by Godot because my Windows machines display: running cmdline: "path/to/executable" "--path" "path/to/game" when the button 0 is selected. This behaviour is encountered on other Godot experiences (games) and it only occurs when outside of the editor (and running it directly from the menu using the Run button)

you should preferably use the search on the tracker to see if someone has already reported the issue you are experiencing however it is better to get duplicate reports than not have people report issues at all. :)

PTrottier

Yes, I apologize for that. I didn't expect it to be already fixed :)

Megalomaniak

The point was there is no need to apologize for a legitimate report. The fix is not out in a official release yet, so the report is legitimate after all. ;)
