Change WATTSON action key

Game-ruining mechanic.

Wattson has the press direction down option to pick up or remove a node, fine, good.

But she also has the option to press square(/action key) to remove them.

This is problematic, as trying to reload your gun you end up not reloading and removing a vital node, having a double vulnerable result.

Similarly if you're trying to open or close a door, you now don't know if you might reload, remove node, or open or shut door. This is too problematic in the middle of the fight, even sometimes when simply in the nodes and trying to reload.

Doesn't need multiple buttons for the same thing, should be removed.

  • I main Wattson, but I do wonder if there’s any other button layout that would actually be easier to use.

    The current setup works fine for reviving downed teammates, placing fences, and opening or closing doors.

    At the end of the day, controllers just have a limited number of buttons, so this is an issue that’s hard to avoid.
