Description

If I open controls settings in-game, my HOTAS disappears from the list of devices and stops being visible ingame until game is restarted

Devices known to be affected so far:
Saitek X-55 Rhino
MS Sidewinder Force Feedback 2
Logitech 3D Pro

I doubt it is related to specific device - seems more like a game bug to me - but, nevertheless.

Well, for me it happens in SP as well. Do you use Advanced Flight Model?

Do you have this issue with default model as well, or with AFM only?

This bug appears to be a duplicate of Bug #14924, "Opening joystick config in game results in joystick disappearing as input option".

Bug #14924 is already acknowledged with BI developer feedback and Bug #14924 already has 94 votes.

Fair point. But #14924 talks specifically about MP, it will need to be updated to close this as duplicate
