When might we see a move to inputs recognized by a hardware ID instead of the Windows input enumeration?

Sean TracyTechnical Director of Content

Yeah, and we rely heavily on DirectInput for this. It's an entire library that is in Windows. And generally, we're probably not going to replace that. It's a lot of work, ultimately, just to give consistent IDs or whatever. And quite honestly, Windows has got to fix this. This is something that's going to come from the drivers necessarily. So we're not about to change the entire input system for that. Is there something that we could put in place so that if it does detect the same kind of things, it's not going to remap or change the IDs? Yeah, probably. It's just not really the highest priority thing right now, to be fair.
