hey folks, is here someone who made a multiple controller supported game in the past? we have an issue when we use multiple controllers. everything works well in editor mode, but when we build it the inputs are messed up and don´t work anymore... can someone help?

In this video the guy talks about this issue and how he tackled it:

Dude, we had the EXACT same issue with our jam entry, 'Duet'. Unity is infamous for having a terrible legacy input system. With like 6 hours until the jam was over, we broke down and got Rewired. I honestly can't recommend that plugin enough.

thanks for the reply guys! We tried to fix it for about 5 hours and than decided to upload it with the bug... We found out that you can play it with only one controller plugged in at the beginning and connect the other controller when you in game.

Unity has a preview package of their new input system as Rewired can be expensive for some devs. I'll recommend going with the preview package and the legacy system causes bugs like the ones you experienced. Brackeys even has a tutorial on the new system

Thank you!! That finally fixed our problem :) Are we allowed to upload this bugfix? Because the submission period is over...

I think small bug fixes and accessibility updates are allowed. Just don't add new game mechanics, levels, whatever. When you update your game, add your update details to your game page so that they know that the update is for.
