    retroarch supports orientation switching and works in all four orientations afaict.

    It’s bluetooth, it has the same button labels and layout as an xbox pad, it’s by Beboncool? It’s this thing.

    That works, yes. The bug was only with the reverse orientation, though; the orientation that would be upside down relative to what landscape mode sets it to.

    Yep! Everything actually works perfectly as long as the phone isn’t oriented in landscape mode with the bottom of the phone on the left. This is a fab port and I am having fun commanding wings with the phone oriented one of the ways that works, I just prefer the bottom on the left rather than the right because it gives me easier access to the volume buttons while the phone is in the gamepad’s clamp thing.

    To reiterate, everything works fine unless the phone is turned sideways with the bottom of the phone on the left. This causes the analog stick to stop working until I restart the app. If I do not turn the phone that way the mapper works perfectly.

    Thanks for prompt response time and lmk if you need any more information or whatever. This isn’t the most urgent thing in the world since it can be easily worked around, but it’d be cool to see it fixed down the road.

    update! if i start up magic dosbox in portrait orientation, the stick works fine??? but then stops working if i rotate my phone to landscape mode at any point. wacky!

    edit: ok landscape mode with the bottom of the phone (the one with the back/home/whatever buttons) on the RIGHT seems to work fine, as does switching between phone upright portrait and that. the stick stops working when i rotate the phone to have the bottom on the LEFT, and remains nonworking until i restart. i haven’t tried with the phone upside down. well, i guess i can still play wing commander if i sacrifice easy access to the volume buttons! what a bizarre bug.
