One More Lawn Controls and Steering Wheel Setup

Use the interactive dashboard

Starting the mower is a hold action on its ignition key. Look at the dashboard’s key, blade switch or deck lever and interact with that object. The official store describes a hold-to-start key, blade switch, deck-height lever, lights and fuel gauge.

A screenshot shows Tab — Hands on the dash, but a screenshot is not proof of every current default binding. Use the in-game prompts and binding menu for your installation. We avoid publishing an unverified keyboard table that could conflict with remapping.

Rebind the input you use

The 0.9.18 demo note introduced Options > Controls > Keys and Buttons for keyboard, mouse and controller buttons. It names Wheel and Pedals for wheel buttons. Change the relevant binding and test it in a safe open area before working near Elvira’s decorations.

If an attached controller makes the camera move by itself, the 0.9.19 note documents a Use controller toggle under Options > Controls. Turning it off is a targeted check when you intend to use keyboard and mouse, not a universal fix for all camera problems.

Calibrate a wheel and separate pedals

The 0.9.20 note says the wheelbase, pedals and handbrake can be separate devices, naming MOZA and Fanatec among examples. Its calibration can be repeated or individual steps skipped. The store also lists force-feedback wheels and pedals, including Logitech G29 and other DirectInput wheels in the requirements notes.

Connect the devices you intend to use, open wheel calibration and follow its prompts. Test steering and pedal response before mowing. This is supported-input information, not a guarantee that every peripheral or driver version works identically.

PlayStation controller problems after launch

Update 1.0.1 says Circle should no longer dismount you unexpectedly and R2 should no longer trigger smoking. It also says DualShock 4 and DualSense work properly without Steam Input. Check that update before changing several unrelated settings at once.

PlayStation controller support on a Windows computer does not announce a PS5 edition. See platform status. For mower starting and blade setup, continue with Elvira’s cut.
