Second controller doesn't work
- March 11, 2016 update fixed the controllers working in multiplayer, however it introduced another bug where playing multiplayer makes first player to control both first and second player.
- It's possible to use specific workaround if first player is playing with keyboard.
Issues fixed
Controller constantly moving to right/left
- This issue seems to be specific to Unity engine and Xbox One Controller under Windows 10.[5] As game doesn't feature button rebinding, currently only workaround is by installing older version of the driver.
Install older driver[6] |
