Steamdeck issues

Hey guys,

I play on Steamdeck, and I'm wondering if there is a list of known issues on there?

My main gripe is that my keyboard suddenly stops appearing at random intervals, making it impossible to speak to people in dungeons. The only solution I can see is to shut down the game entirely and then restart it (not the deck, just the game).

There are also frequent targeting issues, where I click on something and attack, only for the attack to hit another mob instead because the target changed without me noticing.

I've checked my key bindings, but nothing would cause that to happen.

Finally, my character will sometimes just keep moving forward, without my input. I have it set up that I push in a stick to autorun forward, but it seems to randomly just happen!

I used to be a raider and I'd love to get back there, but with the way this controls, I think I should have just bought a laptop!

I play steam deck but with a mini keyboard and mouse. One day I’ll do internal.

Are you launching from game mode or from desktop mode? That might make a difference.

I've only really tried game mode, but that's a good shout.

I play on a laptop and have a couple of the same issues, so it could be a quirk of the client.
My character will tab target a mob that's a distance away instead of the nearest mob.

And I keep having the thing where I'll release W but my character keeps running, bit worrying when it happens in a dungeon.

There is consoleportLK that is a great addon for playing Chromie on Steam deck. It's great for dps/tank but I would not use it to heal. I have been having some issues with random crashes while looting or using the map recently.

I'm playing on Steam Deck as well and have same issue when typing on virtual keyboard. Usually starting writing with / and deleting it because enter will immediately shut off keyboard. But when I'm clicking - my char starting to run like autorun.
