I have two joysticks and buttons get assigned to the first one instead of the second one?

Only reported by one user so far: https://github.com/ForsakenX/forsaken/issues/275

Why are my joystick button names are wrong ?

SDL moved to the newer Microsoft controller api.

This controller api broke conventions with previous api's causing button mappings to drift from the standard.

Hence older controller may report incorrect button names.

There isn't much we can do about this short of making hard coded fixes for every single type of controller affected which we currently have no plans to do.

My wide screen monitor/tv seems stretched out ?

You may need to pass -aspect:x:y on the command line to stop stretching.

My caps lock button doesn't work ?

Set SDL_DISABLE_LOCK_KEYS=1 in your environment to make it act like a normal button.
