this is the only setting for hotbar operation on controller/stick i could find. and it isnt working


the mouse has a specific setting for the wheel, would be nice if this could be linked to coolie hads or that stick cross on the controller

Just to make clear - the missing functionality is that you cant assign a button to scroll through the hotbar (and scroll the hotbars as such)
There is an option to assign an axis to that ... but it does nothing

(under hotbar)

Some players want to use the controllers axes and analog controls for things like speed, aiming, strafing, and rotation,(it just feels so good) Being unable to swap weapons using buttons is a issue for players who want to the controllers analog input to accomplish those tasks.
