Why is DefaultVirtualJoysticks working in preview but not on real device on Android?

Virtual Gamepad (DefaultVirtualJoysticks) work in “Mobile Preview” and don’t work in real device (Launch->Nexus_5).

Just want to chime in that I’m also running into this issue.

Do you have any ideas?

I did the following, but i’m not sure what one made it work:

  1. Make sure you press “Set as Default” on the input screen.

  2. I had to package mine and deploy it on my phone for it to work, unfortunately. Using the in engine launcher gave me all kinds of weird issue.

  3. I can confirm it’s “Gamepad Left X”, “Gamepad Right X”, “Gamepad Left Y” and “Gamepad Right Y” that work on the phone when packaged and deployed.

BIG !
