Here are where the controls are stored.
Input.ini and in your project configs
The DefaultActionBinds in ControlsSettingsDetails located at /Game/Cardinal/MainMenu/Blueprints/UI/SettingsPanels/ControlsSettingsDetails
DefaultAxisBinds located in RAMA-AxisControls at /Game/Cardinal/MainMenu/Blueprints/UI/SettingsPanels/RAMA-AxisControlsThe order matters to the engine. It should be alphabetical. To my knowledge, nobody has come up with a better method without programming one or using a form of real time binds on every tick such as Mathew Wadstein's BindableKeys system. (Bypassing UE4's method basically)

Sorry I couldn't be much more help. I'm out of town for the US holiday weekend. I will be back on Monday and take a look at the input system and see if I find any issues. I need to make the new release for 4.17 as well. Hopefully the plugins have no problems with the new engine. That is why we wait a bit for new releases.
-
I'm going to make the instructions more reader friendly next week as well. The forum software's plugin for "spoilers" is no longer working. I was hiding the instructions with dynamic buttons that hide the different instructions settings to make it more readable.
-
A few of the plugins are not working for 4.17 yet. It will be a bit before the 4.17 version is released.
-
The menu system for Unreal Engine 4.17 has been released. It includes an in game return to game button and a debug print to screen fix.

when i test the project with not run steam , it cant find hostgame list , LAN not work. do you have this issue ?
-
have somebody test project with LAN ?
-
All of my previous test have worked. I will test it right now.
Edit: Strange, it doesn't appear to be working on Ethernet to WiFi LANs on my network. (Could be related to how my network is set up) I'll check Ethernet to Ethernet. I'm looking into it. I've experienced some cases where certain types of network setups didn't show LAN games or took a long time for them to appear.
I'm looking into Advanced Sessions Plugin and the BP nodes. I'll hopefully have fix tomorrow. Very little has changed in 4.15-4.17 versions.
Edit 2: It works in editor. Looking into network related things.
Edit 3: Standalone works as well. Hmm, looking into possible packaged version configuration file problems.
Edit 4: Packaged LAN search and join works on the same PC when launching two instances. Going to try ethernet via switch LAN on two PCs.
Edit 5: It works on LAN network via wired on a local switch. It did not work on WiFi via WiFi Access Point to a wired client. I don't know why. It must have something to do with how Epic designed the sessions broadcasting over the network. My guess is that there's a broadcast packet that's being blocked by my access point.
Did you try LAN over wired networks? Or did you use WiFi?

The menu system for Unreal Engine 4.18 has been released.

@Thaddeus thanks
-
@Thaddeus Now there is a problem, your project test, steam, host, other clients do not search or link up, what's the matter? Ask for help
-
@Thaddeus Using LAN testing, filtering is invalid
-
@like3727
Hmm, I didn't experience that problem. What version did you test? What region of the world are you in? How are you testing it? Are you testing LAN on a wired network or wireless? Separate devices? Did you investigate routers for port forwarding issues with steam? I tested the project locally in the Midwest of the United States and also on a wired switch using laptops and a desktop. Discovering sessions on a LAN can take a while.I wonder if your Steam problem has something to do with the test App ID and what region you are located in? They are region locked to my understanding, meaning you have to test it in the same geographical location unless you have your own App ID. On LAN, were you working on WiFi? LAN uses Epic's default online subsystem and I've had problems with it on some networks depending on how they are configured.
The project uses Advanced Sessions Plugin. Maybe your answer is in there?
As far as filtering goes, it's fairly simple how it works but isn't really used by the example project. It looks at the extra variables passed by the online session and removes them accordingly. It might require a bit tweaking depending on how you want to set up your project. (For example, filtering by maps would require more maps than the test project has.)
Thanks for checking out the project. Hopefully you find something useful about it.

Hi there, I get this error everytime I try compiling with Visual Studio 2017. It does not let me do so with 2015, it says that the project is incompatible with that Visual Studio version. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank You.

@Thaddeus The previous test was correct, and it was not correct to start the test after yesterday.
-
@Thaddeus 4.14 version, I was in Chongqing, China, wired network, different computer test, opened steam, set up a host computer, other computer connections failed to search for this host. It was all right before, it was yesterday, the test connection was not up, the search was not the host.
双语对照 -
test App ID 480
-
Search LAN is ok, open steam, search the host is fail....
-
Do you have any contact?
-
I found that there is a problem, joinsession, join the success, but will not jump to the new map, the local area network can, steam is not.
