| Summary | 0002189: Keyboard input stops working when Xbox 360 controller loses connection | ||||
| Description | I have an Xbox 360 wireless receiver for my PC and before playing AI War I was playing a different game that used it. During a campaign with a friend my controller turned off to save power and then AI War stopped accepting all keyboard input such as ESC to get to the game menu or the enter key to chat with other players. However, if I clicked "Messages" I could type in the text box and click "Send" to send the message so not all keyboard input was lost. Here's how to reproduce it 100% of the time: 1. Turn on wireless Xbox 360 controller 2. Remove the battery from the controller 3. Start campaign in AI War 4. Bug: Keyboard input stops being accepted It's not a big deal since I just need to remember to turn off my controller before starting AI War. If you do not have an Xbox 360 controller I would be happy to do regression testing for you. Other info: - Windows 7 64-bit - Using Steam - Expansions: Zenith Remnant, Children of Nienzul - Happens in full screen and windowed modes - Alt-tab and returning to the game does not fix it - Turning on the controller does not fix it | ||||

I updated to 4.058 and the issue still happens but the game notified me that it wrote some info to ErrorsReportedByEngine. I've attached the file but it's not the most descriptive error message. |

Well, yea. The device is not connected because you just unplugged it. What part of that doesn't make sense? :P Seriously though, it just seems like the engine is getting confused about which input devices it should listen to. My guess is that the engine is treating the XBox controller as a keyboard, so it thinks the keyboard in general is gone when it gets unplugged, even though there is another keyboard input (your actual keyboard) that still works just fine. Not sure if it is a Unity issue, or an AI War issue, or AI War not being specific enough about what types of input to ask Unity to listen to. |

Unfortunately, we don't have any XBox 360 controllers to test with. But, the error message you've posted makes it pretty clear it is an underlying bug in the Unity engine. That's something that we have to basically wait until they fix it. :/ |
