New update broke some xbox controller functionality.

As you probably all know the new update was released for steam, great I thought but I'm having some trouble with my xbox controller, some things that used to work no longer do which isnt ideal.

First of all I can't make officers move their formations anymore, it just doesn't want to move them no matter what I press. It works fine with the mouse but I like using the xbox controller for this.

Another bug that has been annoying me is that as soon as any of the joysticks are at 0 - as in im not touching them - the game assumes that I'm using the mouse now which is very annoying now because the new update changes the powerup HUD if you are using a controller so every second when I stop touching any of the buttons on my xbox controller the powerup HUD changes position which is really annoying.

Just some minor annoyancs but the officer bug makes this game unplayable on a controller.

Anyone else got this?

Testing now.

By the way, is it possible that when the thumb sticks and shoulder triggers are zeroed, you're moving the mouse/pressing keyboard keys?

Edit: Damn, can't find wired 360 controller.

hmm.. I doubt it, the swapping input type happens on both my desktop and laptop so it is unlikely that they are both doing that.

Works fine for me. As long as I keep the mouse still and don't touch the keyboard, the UI is the XBox one. Formations can be moved with either X or A, where accitentally clicking X on the officer itself will of course change its mode.
