Important Notes

ALL config has been play tested heavily
This setup alternates hands for complimentary actions and balancing forces applied to buttons/triggers/sticks as you play
This lets you move around while holding sticks for things like ‘interact holds’ or ’toggle crouch’ – if you have crouch on movement stick itll auto-drop you out of crouch because youve tripped the movement stick – moving it to look stick fixed the problem – the game engine input processing limits stick config options that work with the flow of movement in-game
You can safely shuffle some things around based on usage patterns ; just dont change single/double/hold for how things activate ; a lot of this layout avoids issues with the input engine (see below)
Long press events trigger single press events ; you should NOT overlap long and single press on a single button – this appears to be a BUG in the input engine code
With Strand using so many grenade, class ability and melee actions, the 4 paddle version was updated to make it easier to manage ability spam. The 2 paddle form does work but is harder to use tactically in my opinion and prompted the updates above

If you find yourself needing stasis breakout in a better spot than b, dpad may be a good spot if you can spare an emoji
Long press events trigger single press events ; you should NOT overlap long and single press on a single button

This setup was reconciled against Destiny 2. In particular the Discoveries / Options and Inventories functions are in opposite locations compared to Destiny 2 by default and I have flipped them universally to help with muscle memory when swapping between the two games.
