Non-Steam version on Steam Deck - Controller Layout?

Post by ZacKPloK »

So, I bought this game long time ago on GOG, and now also added Space Age from there.

Does anyone have an idea how to get the official controller layout working? I downloaded the standalone version form factorio.com and added it as a non-steam game. I already renamed Factorio inside Steam to the Steam ID (427520). Now I can browse the community layouts, but the tab for official layout is missing.

I would just recreate the layout for myself, and found out that the official layout is based on Gamepad with Mouse Trackpad, but not what all the buttons are mapped to. Just the defaults? And what about the back buttons, as I think they don't even have default mappings?

Thanks for your reply.

I also noticed I can just link factorio to steam (which also gives the proper hints in-game). I never tried it before, just assumed it's not possible to link if bought from GOG originally.
