Accelerator+Brakes Function Deactivating on Its Own #140

Closed JacekLeszczynski closed 1 year ago

JacekLeszczynski commented 1 year ago

Here's an example bug report for the issue you described in Oversteer:

Title: Accelerator+Brakes Function Deactivating on Its Own

Description: I am experiencing an issue with the Accelerator+Brakes function in Oversteer. After a certain amount of time playing, the function deactivates on its own. I have to save the game state, exit the game, and reactivate the function in Oversteer before I can resume play. This issue occurs consistently and disrupts my gameplay.

Steps to reproduce:

Open Oversteer and enable the Accelerator+Brakes function. Start playing a game that supports the function. After a certain amount of time playing, the function deactivates on its own. Save the game state and exit the game. Reopen Oversteer and reactivate the Accelerator+Brakes function. Resume playing the game. Expected behavior: The Accelerator+Brakes function should remain enabled throughout the duration of gameplay.

Actual behavior: The function deactivates on its own after a certain amount of time playing.

Additional information: I am using Oversteer version [insert version number] on [insert operating system]. My input device is a [insert device name] connected via [insert connection type]. I have tried disconnecting and reconnecting the device, but the issue still occurs.

This could be due a disconnect of the device. Please, check the ouput of the dmesg command and see if the wheel has disconnected and reconnected when this happens. It could be a faulty cable or a loose power plug.

Which wheel do you have? Are you using new-lg4ff? Which driver version?

I have a Logitech G29 wheel. I'm using new-lg4ff version 0.3.3.r29. I'll check the connections, and if the problem occurs again, I'll pay attention to what the "dmesg" command outputs. Thank you for the quick response.

It turned out that my steering wheel works after being plugged into a different USB port. This helped. I wouldn't have thought of this solution if it weren't for the suggestion I received. Thank you very much for your response. The issue can be closed now. Thanks!
