ControllerFix

Controller Fix

A BepInEx (mod loader) plugin for Shadows of Doubt. Fixes for playing with a controller, a trackpad or a mouse: one click is one press, case board cards open with a tap and move with a hold, opened cards stay on screen, Y (Triangle on PlayStation) opens and closes menus and closes cards on the case board, the map's floor buttons step one floor, and the cursor survives switching input.

Formerly Button Fix. Same mod and same settings, with a better name for what it has grown into.

If it saves you from retyping a door code, a like on its Thunderstore page is always appreciated. Donations are welcome too:

What it does

• One press per click: on keypads, phone keys and elevator panels, the game could press the same key several times for one click, especially at low or uneven frame rates. Codes came out wrong and elevators stopped at the wrong floor. Now each click presses its key once. Entering a code you already know still fills in every digit.
• Presses what you point at: with a controller, a click could press a button that was selected earlier, somewhere else on the screen. Keypads jumped to the Passcodes tab in the middle of a code. Now a click only presses what you point at.
• Map floors, one at a time: the map's floor up and down buttons could take one controller press twice and skip a floor.
• Case board cards do what you mean: tap a card anywhere to open it, hold and move to drag it, whatever the cursor shows. The game went by which part of the card you hit, so a click could move the card, do nothing, or open it only sometimes. A click that wobbles a few pixels still opens. With a mouse or trackpad, a click on the frame still starts a string as in the game.
• Cards stay on screen: open cards no longer land half under the top bar or past the edge of the screen, also when you come back to the case board. Drag a card past the edge and it slides back when you let go.
• Y (Triangle on PlayStation) closes a card on the case board: B (Circle) closes the whole board, so with a controller there was no quick way to close one card. Press Y and the card you opened last closes, one per press. Over a card, its photo or its pin, Y opens the card's menu, and Y again closes it; an open menu always closes first. A right-click (or two-finger tap) on a photo opens the menu too. Thanks to Captain Fender for the idea.
• Optional: Y (Triangle) also closes the map and the notebook, like B (Circle) does. Off by default, switch on Buttons / YClosesMapAndNotes. On the case board an open menu still closes first, and Y closes the map before any card. The quick map you hold the D-pad for already closes when you let go, so Y leaves it alone.
• Switching input on the case board: going from controller to mouse or back kept no working cursor until you left the board. Now the right cursor comes back at once.
• Phone calls: switching between controller and keyboard during a call no longer lets the view drift, and the view is yours again when the call ends.
• Text fields and lists are left alone: search boxes, typing fields and drop-down lists work as normal.

Works with mouse, trackpad and controller. Tested at 15 and 120 fps.

Config

After one launch, edit BepInEx/config/sm3gm.sod.controllerfix.cfg with the game closed. Coming from Button Fix, your settings carry over.

Setting — Default — Meaning

Buttons / OnePressPerClick — true — Keypads, phone keys, elevator buttons and the map's floor buttons take one press per click.

Buttons / ClickWindowSeconds — 0.6 — How long after a click the game may still press the key (the hand moves to it first).

Buttons / SelectUnderCursor — true — The button under the cursor becomes the selected one, so a controller click presses what you point at.

Buttons / YClosesMapAndNotes — false — With a controller, Y (Triangle) also closes the map and the notebook, like B (Circle).

CaseBoard / DragThreshold — 24 — How far (in pixels at 1080p) the cursor must move with the button held before a click becomes a drag. The game uses 10. 0 = leave the game's value.

CaseBoard / YClosesTopCard — true — On the case board with a controller, Y (Triangle) closes the card you opened last, one per press, and opens and closes a card's menu.

CaseBoard / TapOpensCard — true — With a controller, a tap anywhere on a card opens it and a hold moves it.

CaseBoard / PhotoOpensCard — true — The photo always opens the card and shows the hand cursor; the rest of the card moves it.

CaseBoard / OpenCardsOnScreen — true — Open cards are kept fully on the screen, below the top bar.

Phone / KeepViewOnPhone — true — On a phone call the view stays put when you switch between controller and keyboard.

Debug / LogBlocked — false — Write a line to the log for every repeated press that was stopped.
