I am also receiving this when mapping the shoulder buttons. It tabs to a different menu. However if you go back and look, for me at least, the mapping is set.&nbsp;

I need to be able to map the shoulder and triggers for flying, BF4 style

@thanatopsis It does the mapping for regular PS4 controllers at least when done via Steam, but if you're trying to do it with a joystick instead it both exits the menu AND doesn't save the binding. ☹️
