Description

Build 42.10.0 introduced controller support for fishing but I'm not happy with it since it only lets you cast out to 6 tiles, compared to the 16 tiles for mouse, and I find the right stick controls for reeling very awkward.

This mod has a custom implementation for selecting a casting location with the controller and allowing you to use the trigger buttons to real in your catch.

Controls:
With a fishing rod equiped in both hands start casting by aiming at water with the right stick and pressing RT.
Move the cursor with the DPAD and use the accept button to cast to the selected tile. The tile must be a tile with water on it.
Casting will also fail if the selected tile is out of range (approximately 16 tiles).
After casting use RT to reel in the line and LT to release the line. You can also use the vanilla controls and reel in by rotating the right stick.

Latest Version: 1.1.7

Kaydeth: No but it might have something to do with the auto saving mod I'm using, because it seems to happen when the auto save appears, so no worries ;)

Jessimouche: are you switching between mouse/keyboard and controller?

There is an existing bug in the vanilla code that fails to update when the controls switch from mouse to controller. Like you said, unequiping the fishing rod resets all the fishing logic and fixes it.

Works well for me! I noticed that sometimes, the fishing rod reverts to a regular weapon and cannot be used as a fishing rod until I reequit it with both hands, but otherwise it works just as intended :) thank you for that!

Can you create a new discussion in the discussions tab and describe where you are trying to fish?
