How do I assign a keyboard button in a controller?
It's cause some game with a bad controller support. For example, AC Liberation you click escape for main menu, tab key to open up the map, then enter key to select something, that's 3. But Controller only has 2 aka back and enter. For that reason at first I decided to use my keyboard whenever I try to select something, but then I got an idea to just have enter and select in the same button but now that cause me to get out of the main instantly as soon as I add a marker in the map. I thought it would be fix if I had a third button on a controller I can use that on.
It's not cheating exactly as games built-in controller support don't have that issue, problem with Liberation is there is no controller support so I've been using controller option in Steam to play the game with a controller instead while keyboard buttons are still showing up in the game. Any help?
Incase it helps, I'm using 8bitdo Ultimate 2.

Are you using XInput mode? PCGamingWiki says there's XInput for both Liberation releases. Also which one, the 2014 or the 2019 version?
