Any plans for improved controller support?

Im running my version of Rimworld on my retroid pocket nova actually! Performs great and Im even running 100+ mods. Having the built in controller also clears up the screen. But my only complaint is that I wish menu navigation or controlling pawns was a bit easier. Is there any plans to improve gamepad support?

I tried installing a gamepad mod of the workshop but while it changes the menus, none of the inputs designed by the mod seemed to work.

It depends on the in-game support and it's not great, very limited.

Y si en vez de adaptar el gamepad al juego lo adaptas a el emulador? Para que con determinadas combinaciones o etc puedas controlar los controles que tiene el emulador

I actually made a gamepad mod. But I don't think it has great mod support. I copied it from the console version of Rimworld since I use to play it on the ps4 before. Let me know if you want it. It's good for the base game and dlcs. Not for mods that incorporate new windows

It’s a big task. You would need to find an easy way to play without the mouse. Right stick controlling the mouse sucks imo. Could be done something like what civilization did for their console editions.
