    I cannot find any reference to this in other posts.
    I have just downloaded the alpha, and I am using a Logitech G27 to steer, accelerate and brake.
    I find that the controls work correctly as default whenI first choose any of the scenarios (except the 60 degree cliff, which I assume is simply for viewing?)
    The problem occurs when I then return to the main menu and select another scenario. In the next chosen scenario, my controls have then ceased working completely.

    So for example:
    I go to the destruction derby arena first. Everything works well.
    If I then exit to menu and go to the island, then my controls are completely gone. Nothing works, so I have to hit escape and exit to emnu, then exit the game, restart, whereupon the controls are once again working.

    My system:
    W7 64, i7 4660k, HD7950 3gb, 8GB ram, Logitech G27.

    Thought I should report this.
    This alpha is looking great so far thanks,
    Keith

    I have the same problem with my Xbox 360 controller and it annoys me sometimes. I think it's simply a bug, and nothing more than that. It should be something for the developers to consider attempting to fix in the upcoming update.

    The cliff isnt viewing only. The camera defaults to the wrong vehicle. Hit tab once or twice to switch which vehicle on the map is being controlled and it eventually works again.

    This is a tricky bug and we're aware of it. What makes it really tricky to diagnose and fix is its inconsistency - sometimes controls do work after a dozen map changes, and sometimes they stop working on the first map change. We'll do our best to fix it :)

    sixsixsevenseven thanks for the info re the cliff.

    And thanks to gabester for responding, good to know you're aware of it.

    This looks impressive and could really change the race sim standard in the future :)

    Yep, it's the same problem with every controller actually. It's a tricky bug in the game that seems to affect all controllers.
