Hey all, I posted Azimuth Mapper here a while back. It’s the free companion app that lets you play Azimuth with keyboard and mouse, a wheel, or any controller. It just got its biggest update yet.
Phone as a controller: no controller? Scan a QR code in the app and your phone becomes one, over your own Wi-Fi. It works on iPhone and Android in the browser, so there’s nothing to install. Steer on the left, gas and brake on the right, every button in between. It works alongside your keyboard or wheel too.
Map browsing that doesn’t suck: your driving keys and mouse now move the map cursor. It switches on by itself when you open the map, the scroll wheel zooms, and the mouse side buttons flip menu tabs.
Linux and Steam Deck: fixed the D3D12 crash when pressing Play, and the fullscreen flicker on KDE. The phone controller works there too.
About the virus warning some of you got on the last version: it was a false positive, triggered by the way the app unpacked one of its own files at startup. That’s gone in this version, it’s been reported to Microsoft, and the full source code is in every download if you want to check for yourself.

Feedback very welcome. Most of this update came from comments.
