    PS4 DualShock 4 Suddenly not Working when connected by Bluetooth?

    Hello, a PS4 controller I have has been working on my game, but, recently, within just a few days, I've noticed that it has just stopped working. I'm pretty sure the PS4 DualShock 4 itself is still working, because it connects to Windows 10 and in the debug log in GameMaker Studio 2, it shows...

    GML Check Gamepad axis like 'keyboard_check_pressed"?

    I'm try to find a way to check if the gamepad axis is up or down, but only return once instead of repeatedly.

    Legacy GM Issue Dealing with Using Two Gamepads

    I must be the most unlucky GM:S user of all time since my problems are usually those that rarely ever happen to anyone! Well anyway, my issue is once again related to gamepads. I've created a notification system that tells you when you've plugged in a gamepad, and it works: On 'System'...
