    Hi Pilots,

    Thanks again for flagging this issue to us. With Update 1.1, we've added the following fix for the HOTAS deadzone:

    • Added options in the menu called “Controller Global Deadzone" and "Flight Stick Global Deadzone” which will allow you to modify the deadzone individually for standard controllers and Flight Sticks

@Kellar21 Same issue with the Logitech Extreme 3D Pro. Deadzone is horrible. played with settings for a long time with no effect. Seems locked to x/yaxis. Also the issue with locked frame rates. I'm displaying 120fps. The game IS NOT running at that framerate. Seems locked to 30 / 60 hz.

I have returned the game and will not be touching it until these issues have been addressed. Otherwise it seems pretty fun in the hour I played around trying to make it work.

@Gibson1498 Yes the frame rate is a secondary issue where the refresh rate and fps aren't syncing up properly.

The deadzone should be easy for them to fix, it's literaly a cfg change locked by EAC currently.

c\users\yourname\documents\star wars squarons\steam\settings

There are lines in the config file for both GstInput.DeadzoneFloor and GsTRender.MotionBlur.

If you set deadzonefloor to 0 instead of 0.2 it fixes deadzone but EAC won't let u keep it saved like that

    When you change it, does it work for the session? Or do you get kicked off by EAC?
