The Unofficial Starbound Controller Support

Description
Adapts Starbound's control scheme to be more controller savvy. The design is intended to be easy to learn and suitable for all situations.

Installing this mod requires you to create a new character, any characters made after installing the mod will not work without the mod.

(The image above shows a picture of a Nintendo Switch Pro Controller because it is the controller that I used when making this mod. But this mod is not intended for Nintendo Controllers specifically.)

The tool bar has had a complete overhaul for easy use with controllers. The item slots are coordinated to each directional button. There are now three separate toolbars as opposed to the previous two. The new toolbar has only four slots though, however toolbars can be quickly switched with the X button.

Fully Installing this mod requires a few extra steps

1. There is subscribing to the mod here on the page,

2. You will need to download a special control configuration. This mod utilizes certain button inputs that need to be manually typed in on the Starbound.config file. Download the Starbound.config file from the dropbox link and put it into the "Storage" folder located in "Starbound"

https://www.dropbox.com/s/k4qz5j79ijyd9y8/starbound.config?dl=0

3. This mod was made and tested on the default Steam configuration for controllers. It is recommended that you use the default control scheme.

If you have any questions about this mod please ask me here on the mod page, if you are having difficulties with the controls take a look at the in-game manual that can be crafted with your empty hands.

Thank you for using the Unofficial Starbound Controller Support Mod.

This mod is incompatible with anything that modifies the toolbar.

Does this work for anyone?
I'm using the Steel Series Stratus Duo controller on Windows 10.
I followed the instructions provided in the description perfectly.
Restarted the game and Controller doesn't work. Works great on other games though.

if this could be updated to make the cursor slow down when hovering over items, it would make it much easier to use for controller

I might have to revisit this mod soon. I kind of left it to rust, honestly. I am a little more experienced than I was before and I might be able to improve upon the original design with a little tinkering, no promises though.

Yes, the unedited control scheme. Steam will save control layouts for your games individually so do not worry about losing control setups for other games of yours.
