Bug #19335
Partial joystick operation when connected after the game is launched
0%
Description
When the app is launched (the first menu is displayed) and then joystick is connected and the users enters into the control settings no axis is displayed in the analog settings. However, when the axis button is clicked, the pop-up displays joy0.3 axis as assigned. When any axis is activated on the joystick by the user, this axis is displayed in the pop-up. When Accept is clicked still no axis is displayed on the analog control's button and when the button is clicked again, joy0.3 axis is displayed on the pop-up the assigned one no matter which was assigned before. This probably means the engine does recognize the joystick even if one is connected after the startup but the rest od the game has some trouble with it.
I didn't test if the joystick works in game if connected after launching KSP 1.4.4 but in earlier versions the game had to be restarted to use the joystick. It's most likely unusable before it's configured and it cannot be configured in the case it was connected after the app is started.
