Motion stops after mounting or dismounting using a game controller on Mac


Recommended Posts

This may seem like an obscure bug, but it's been quite annoying. Any time I mount (and sometimes when I dismount), any motion or mount special action key I'm pressing (e.g. forward, griffon wing flap) will stop working approximately 3.5 seconds after mounting/dismounting. If I release the key and press it again motion will resume and it won't happen again until I mount/dismount. If I wait more than 3.5 seconds after mounting/dismounting to start moving it won't happen. It also only seems to happen when I'm using a wired game controller rather than my wireless keyboard. I would be tempted to suspect the controller or driver/lack of driver except for the specific timing in relation to mounting/dismounting. If it was a hardware, driver or system issue it should happen all the time or at random seeming times not related to what I was doing in the game. It has to be something in the game or an interaction between the game and the controller that happens at that specific time. No idea how to debug this. I can work around it by knowing that I'll have to release and repress any motion or action key I want to keep working, or wait to start moving when that is practical, but it's very inconvenient when trying to follow a fast group or make a quick getaway.
