Major - Verse UI: Controller issues

Issue 1: When opening the main Fortnite menu, controller users lose focus from Verse UI and can never regain focus and click/use buttons. Issue 2: Controller users cannot navigate to buttons that are not perpendicular to other buttons, For example; buttons in an X pattern are impossible to navigate to, but buttons in a + pattern can be navigated to. Issue 3: When a button is disabled using SetEnabled(false), controller users lose focus and must navigate away from the disabled button.

Critical - Controllers and gamepads cannot focus on buttons when using a custom UI of any type.

Really as simple as the title says. When using a gamepad, you can’t focus on any button in a custom UI, and therefore it is unusable, making games unplayable without using the default Pop-Up dialogue device. This occurs with any type of custom UI and on all gamepads I could test (xbox, PS, switch) Below is an example of a UI that cannot be interacted with due to this bug Edit: note that this is a grid UI and it is set up correctly.

Verse UI losing focus on screen visibility changes

When using widget visibility to hide and show elements of an interface in verse, the current selected button/focus is not updated for controller users, making impossible to navigate throught the interface. Computer (Mouse) and Touch users are not affected by that issue, since they can directly click on the other place on the screen, not needing to change the focus the same way that controller users need Note that this is not the same issue that happens when the buttons are not on a grid patter…

Critical - Verse UI - Console users will often lose focus from Verse buttons.

As explained in the title, Verse UI completely loses focus for players on consoles, essentially locking them and forcing them to close the game. They can’t open their inventory, nor their options, or anything. They get fully locked. This is such a horrible bug for Controller users and really harms experiences using Verse UI.
