Yeah, I never even bought it after reading the reviews about how janky it is, I want to use a HOTAS and rudder pedals and it doesn’t sound possible in X4
No, X is absolutely my type of game. Don’t blame me for the horrible controls and menus, I didn’t create that hot mess. It’s also a well complained about part of the game.
I couldn’t find a way to bind a double press in X4, so hold RB and tap X for example. These combinations are essential because there is no other way to use a controller to perform all of the necessary controls. It’s a shame because I would have invested a lot into the game if that was surmountable.
I tried binding in Steam but the controller settings in Steam are kind of terrible too. Half the time I don’t know what a setting does, and I feel like I need to do a training course to understand it. So I gave up and went back to Elite.
I don’t blame you. Over the years I’ve seen some really impressive controller setting though. You can do a lot things with the steam settings. But yeah, you need to want to really invest in learning how to do it, and then actually remembering what you’ve set.
The controls in X4 are so horrible though.
Good lord if that ain’t the truth.
It has every opportunity to be good, but I can’t even navigate the goddamn menus, let alone step into my ship.
Forget about using something other than a mouse and keyboard too, it just won’t work.

Like any of these games, you need to change the key bindings.
I have a set that I use in all space sim. What I am trying to say is that the control can be the same as any other space sim.
This type of game might not be your kind of stuff.

Steam might be able to bind that. But then you’re probably going to need a diagram next to you while you play so you remember all your controls.

I play with an HOTAS, so controls are the same as in Star Citizen for me
What part do you feel is horrible? I enjoyed playing it a lot.
The controls and menus.
