Q on joystick binding

[GlaziusF]

I can get most of the basics of controller binding from looking at the bindsavefile after I switched to controller mode, but I have a question about something a little more advanced.

 

Can I bind chord combinations of keys? Like using left trigger together with the bumpers and face buttons to hit numbers 6 through 10 in the power tray?

I am going to talk as a player not a member of the dev team (because as far as this feature comes, i am just a user.)

 

I hope modifier buttons are a possibility, because I am dying to replicate Final Fantasy XIV's Cross Bar control scheme!!!... and on that note... i want UI Cross Hot bars that hold 5 powers (the center one to map with R3 and L3.)

This is actually super relevant to me right now, because I actually figured out a way to do this with a PS4 controller, SCPToolkit (basically, custom windows drivers for Playstation controllers), and a program like Xpadder... And the last patch broke my controller scheme, one I had been using since Live, as for whatever reason City of Heroes is recognizing some of my D-Pad buttons as multiple button presses at once. Seeing as those are my tab targeting buttons...

 

I'm trying to figure out if there's anything I can adjust on my end, but nowhere else am I having this problem.

 

EDIT: Okay, I made a bit of a dumb. I forgot that I actually uninstalled the SCPToolkit drivers, because at some point windows got its own drivers that work for *most* things. I was able to get everything working again by reinstalling the toolkit's drivers and using them instead of the basic windows ones.

 

It should be noted, however, that anyone using a PS4 controller without the third party drivers is going to run into this problem.

If buttons on the gamepad can emulate mouse or keyboard buttons, then you can do things that way.  I haven't used it myself yet, but JoyToKey seems like a possible solution...
