(2019) Anyone else’s joystick disappear after the latest update?

Original Post

It’s fully gone from the HUD meaning I can’t autorun anymore. I can still see it in the HUD layout tool though. Happening to anyone else or is it just me?

Thanks for the report, we'll look into this. And any other info or screenshots would be dope!

This was a serious miss on our end. The expectation is that an internal post-mortem is going to drive process changes.

also Trello here, so y'all can track the progress!

People that are experiencing this: What devices are you on and did you load your Hud from cloud at all?

iPad Pro 2018 11”, latest iOS version, I did not load my HUD from cloud. Just went in game, loaded from cloud to check if anything changes, it doesn’t :(
Pressing the inventory button makes the joystick reappear, but it stays static as you move (the middle circle in the joystick is immobile).

Can you post picture of your HUD?

You want the in game one or the layout tool one ? Or both ?

Well, more is better! Both

Thank you to u/FN_King9832 - who found a better workaround. If you open the inventory each match the joystick will appear. We've updated the Trello card here: https://trello.com/c/dRnZNNUO/632-movement-joystick-is-not-appearing-in-the-hud-on-certain-devices
