current patch notes list, as of this writing: this is only there to track "officially in": changes thus far.

Template:Input Documentation

• Cleaned up the Input documents to be more in line with current-day Input standards
• remove redundancies for PlayStation Controller section for the sake of future-proofing
• added two new values pages for Controller Type's Motion Sensors functionality and Steam Input prompt's detection modes.
• added Template:Prompts value page, it should be easier to reach there instead of being buried a bit deeper.

Input:

• Added abbreviations (Mouse Hover for additional info) for most Input sections, including "Full Controller Support" (makes it more consistent with Steam Deck Verification), "XInput-Compatible Controllers", "Simultaneous controller+KB/M, "Steam Input Hook input", "Steam Input Official controller preset(s)", "Generic/other controllers".

Keyboard and mouse, touch:

• Added "Keyboard and mouse prompts".

Controller Support:

• Added "Controller motion sensor", alongside "Controller motion sensor modes". Each Controller Type (when supported) row will feature its own "Motion sensor support" values to account for specific games that may support additional controller types with motion sensor functionality. ** Refer to https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/User:Al2009man/Sandbox/Template:Input/controller_motion_sensors for additional Motion Sensor gameplay modes.

Controller Types:

• Fixed redirect for XInput-Compatible Controllers, it should now redirect to just the XInput portion of the Controller glossary.
• Added link redirect for Xbox's `Impulse triggers rumble` section of Controller:Xbox_Wireless_Controller#Impulse_Trigger_Vibration.
• Updated existing `Generic/other controllers`"'s Button prompts legend values to be up-to-date with the recent PlayStation Controller changes previously introduced, while also adding "Nintendo Switch" recognized values
• Added "Universal Controller" button icon for "Generic/other controllers".

Additional information:

• Added "Input Prompt Override".

Steam Input:

• Added `Steam Input prompts`, alongside `steam input prompts icons` (values are shared with "Generic/other controllers") and `steam input prompts styles`.
  • Refer to https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/User:Al2009man/Sandbox/Template:Input/siapi_prompts for additional prompt styles
• Added `Steam Deck button prompts`.
• updated the title for "Hook input" to include "Steam Virtual Gamepad" alongside Legacy Mode.

the **TO-DO list** (as of 4/28/2024):

• Update the documentation portion of the Controller Motion Sensor mode
• Update the documentation portion of SteamInput Button modes
• Editorial Spelling Checks and Formatting fixes
• Add additional link redirects for selected Input section (primarily: Button prompt) - Update - 4/22/2024: Ultimately: this will be dropped.
• (PCGW Admin potentially required) will need to add more automatic game listings for Controller Motion Sensor-supported games.
• [OPTIONAL] (PCGW Admin potentially required) Will need to update existing https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/List_of_games_with_Steam_Controller_button_prompts to include additional rows when it comes to Steam Deck prompts alongside Steam Controller. since the description mentions Steam Deck prompts: it might make sense if possible.
