- The mod has been updated to work with both 1.32 and Next Gen though I have yet to start using NG so I can't guarantee it will work on NG.

This is for people, like me, who use a controller and accidentally press the D-Pad when near or mounted on Roach and end up without a sword. This way, you can still use the keyboard numbers to put/take the swords on Roach.

We are going to be editing the script called `swordsonroach.ws`
You can use Notepad++, VS Code or Sublime Text.

</br></br>

1) Find `function checkNearRoach()`. Should be around Line 36.
2) Change this:

if ( VecDistance( GetWitcherPlayer().GetWorldPosition(), GetWitcherPlayer().GetHorseWithInventory().GetWorldPosition() ) <2 )

</br>

to this
</br>

if ( VecDistance( GetWitcherPlayer().GetWorldPosition(), GetWitcherPlayer().GetHorseWithInventory().GetWorldPosition() ) <2 && !theInput.LastUsedGamepad())

</br>

3) Save
4) Load up the game
5) Profit!
