Re: Allow side mouse button binds.

@Winneh2 Thank you for confirming and providing your workaround.  I'm adding my experience to this post in case it helps anyone else. After trying your workaround, I can now bind my side mouse buttons to an action.  I think it's odd (maybe a bug) that you have to hold both mouse buttons to bind at least one side button.

My mouse: ROG Gladius III

Situation:

You can't bind a single side mouse button to an action, for example, evade or dash.

Suggested workaround:

1. Select your action, in my case, "evade / drop".

2. Hold both side mouse buttons to bind to the action (I only have two side mouse buttons).

3. Select the same action again, and hold down the side mouse button you want to bind.

You should now be able to bind either mouse button to your action.  I tested in game, and confirm it works for me like in Jedi Order.  You can still bind a single mouse button after restarting the game.

Hope this helps, and big thanks to @Winneh2 for the workaround.

    This workaround doesn't work with my Logi Lift. Any other suggestions?

    I have one other suggestion, but I haven't tested it to see that it works.  After digging around in the game files, I found that the key binds are stored in the GameUserSettings.sav file.  For me this file is located here:

    C:\Users\<my username>\Saved Games\Respawn\JediSurvivor

    When I open this file in Notepad++, I can do a search for the word "thumb" and I find four instances where my side mouse button ( that is, "ThumbMouseButton2") is mapped to  these actions

    - Evade

    - Dismount

    The suggestion: bind your specific action to a unique keyboard key or mouse button.  Open the GameUserSettings.sav and search for unique keyboard key or mouse button.  Replace each occurrence the name with "ThumbMouseButton2" or "ThumbMouseButton3"

    It's a long shot, but at least it's something.
