Game Thinks I'm Using A Controller
For some reason my game is stuck thinking I am using a controller, locking me out from keyboard controls. At first I thought it was an issue with my analog keyboard as problems like this are common with it, but now using a different keyboard the issue persists, even after changing all of the controller bindings to their keyboard counter parts, verifying file integrity, restarting the computer, and reinstalling the game. I was capable of using keyboard controls until the end of the tutorial/first run. I still suspect it may be related to the analog keyboard, as before mentioned it frequently has issues being detected as a controller.

Hello, thank you for report!
I think it's time to add an option to auto detect or force certain input mode. For now I cannot offer any kind of temporary workaround - the auto detection code is quite finnicky.

If you can play with mouse too, you could try connecting an USB mouse and moving it a bit, so game thinks you're using mouse and keyboard - which should help, but won't provide tooltips as it will expect mouse to hover.

Another solution could be somehow working around with steam input remapping, but I am not familiar with that.

Either way, I will add an option to turn off input auto detection!

I am using a mouse and did mess around a little bit with Steam input, but I don't really know how to use it myself. I'll just have to wait for the fix, I appreciate it.

Hey, Zlad,
I have built a test build in [staging] branch which adds option to override input device detection. The version in Options should be 1.0.0f6
To access the beta branch, click on Sipho in your Library and select Properties.

Please let me know if this works for you!

It doesn't seem to have helped any, usually a setting of this type is pretty much the only thing that solves issues with the analog keyboard, but it's still stuck detecting a controller and forcing controller controls.

Would you be able to screenshot where the game still thinks you are using Controller, even with ForceKeyboard setting? You can either post in Steam screenshots section or DM me on Discord.

Maybe I have overlooked something. Thank you for your patience - I'd really love to fix this for you and for anyone else who might experience this issue!
