Controller Support for Online Play #8

My friend plays on a Windows tablet and requires playing with the controller. The game itself HAS gamepad support, but when we use ROUNDSwithFriends and play online, and then when the match starts, she can't use her controller. I'm guessing it's forcing the use of the keyboard and mouse to play online, but it makes it so she can't play without a keyboard and mouse.

She says she can kinda workaround it by making Steam use her gamepad with mouse and keyboard controls, but it's much harder to play, and she would really prefer to be able to use gamepad controls the same way that it does without the mod.

Expected behavior The expected behavior is that the gamepad should still work for online play, the same way that it does in vanilla.

Thanks for the issue. When in the online lobby, you must press "ready" with the device you want to play with. Can you verify if your friend can or cannot press ready with their controller?

She uses her controller to press ready in the online lobby, the gamepad works fine in the main menu, and also works fine in the lobby, and after everyone is ready, and then the game starts, and then when she tries to select the cards, the gamepad no longer works unless she forces her gamepad to act as a keyboard and mouse, or until we remove the RoundsWithFriends mod. I've tested this with her steam controller on her pc, and an xbox controller on my pc, and both ways it disables the gamepad controls and forces you to use keyboard and mouse.
