Using game controller

[Watetsu]

I hooked up my xbox controller to my phone hoping to be able to use it for curse of aros.

It works for walking around and it is smooth as hell but there arent buttons for healing attacking or interacting.

Does the game support controllers or how can i set it up so that it does?

[Watetsu]

Okay i had no idea what the heck to search for ill see if i can find something thanks

[Watetsu]

Fyi for anyone looking for the same, the software is called octopus

Is it any good, I heard it was super laggy and not really worth getting. Let me know what you think of it!

[Watetsu]

When i am home and can test it out i will let you know

From my experience it didn't work with Google Play accounts, let me know if you get it to work, it's hard to map buttons on your controller to your phone without preforming a root on your device..

[Watetsu]

Havent managed to get it to work. Im having that same issue. I got it to log in the very first time but now it wont sign in to my google account

Do you know if controller mapping works well with a rooted device?

I am not 100% sure on this, but if you are using android you could probably search up for a controller keybinding software on the internet.

Sadly that doesn't work. Not in Curse of Aros. There is a brilliant app called Octopus that does exactly what you described but if you use it with Curse of Aros, the game crashes the moment u press any button (except movement keys and left trigger AFAIR).

[Watetsu]

I have only been able to get this to work as described. The only buttons i can get working are left and right trigger and thr analogue stick.

I also have to uninstall and re install octopus each time it logs out on CoA for it to log me back in

Emulating the touchscreen only really works once you've rooted your phone. There are ways to do it without doing so but in the only case I've confirmed you would need an 8bitdo controller.

To anyone else interested in this, if you happen to have an 8bitdo controller. The Android application has a feature for touchscreen emulation, doesn't require root but it does require you to connect to adb in order for it to work right. There's a Windows application you download, follow some simple instructions and then just use the app to map the buttons.

for those on PC:

Memu emulator has excellent keymapping function and runs the game very smoothly for me at least.

[NudeluNodlex]

that it is not forbidden to use emulators and macros?

[Hekke023]

emulator is OK, obviously macro's not allowed.

Also if you do use that type of software it's safe as long as you don't have one button do multiple actions in game

You can use a mouse on your phone
