Issues fixed

Heavy stutters without a controller

If you don't have a controller plugged in, about every 1-2 seconds the game will stutter because it can't find one. Possible solutions:

  • physically plug any controller to your computer

or

  • simulate a "fake" virtual XInput controller using vJoy or Special K

Physics elements do not function correctly at high framerate

Fixed as of Nov 9th 2019.[3]

  1. 1.0 1.1 File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/1121560/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (1121560) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
