Does joystick controls take precedence over keyboard/mouse controls?
On top of that, why is there no option to unbind joystick axes?
And why does the game not activate keyboard controls without restart if the joystick is unplugged?
I happen to be one of those people who occasionally play something else than MWO. I know, it's unbelievable, but people like me do actually exist. My secret perversion happens to be flight sims of all kinds, which is why I need to plug in my Saitek X55 Rhino to play. If I forget to unplug the damn thing before I start playing MWO, all the hell breaks loose. In addition to the above problems, (which by the way exist with any other controller as well, like my old joystick and xbox one pad) the game refuses to shut down properly if I unplugged the stick during a match. The process will hang in the background, but will not show up in the task manager. It will however prevent starting another MWO client and even cause the PC to hang when trying to log off, which usually kills all user processes.
The most simple fix would be to simply put an unbind button to the controls menu. That would also make key rebinding much less painful in many other cases as well. This problem has existed for forever already, why isn't it being fixed?
