Afterburners and Particle Weapons get stuck on

Post by comedian »

For whatever reason my afterburners and particle weapon randomly stick on in combats until I alt-tab out of the game. I thought it might be connected to switching to next hostile target at the same time as shooting (because it includes alt in the command) but I can't replicate either problem consistantly. Otherwise I'm not seeing any conflicts in the controller assignments that might cause it. If anyone has any thoughts on how it might be fixed I'd appreciate it.

Also the controller is a logitech g940.

Sounds like the controller itself may be sticking, if not mechanically (due to the alt-tab fix), perhaps something with the driver. You can extract and place this program inside the game's save data folder to see the raw input data of the device you are using: http://www.starwraith.com/evochronmerce ... Config.zip

This will let you observe all of the button inputs and if one or two may be sticking.

Then you didn't place it in the save data folder. Default location is c:\\sw3dg\\EvochronMercenary unless you changed it manually.
