Terraria Mobile 1.3.0.7.9 (Build 390) Update Notes


This update primarily covers bug fixes from the Controller + Customization Update (1.3.0.7.8) as well as enhanced gamepad support.

PLEASE NOTE: It is not possible to support all controllers and there is a chance that your gamepad may not be supported, even after the update. If your controller isn’t able to connect or to have its buttons mapped after the update, please check your device setup and consult the manufacturer. Due to the sheer number of third party controllers we’re unable to provide a list of supported or unsupported devices.


NEW FEATURES
Added a new settings option in Controller called Setup Controller Hardware:


If your controller does not have bindings already setup in the game system, but is detected on your device and the game can see it, you should now be able bind the keys to enable you to play with your gamepad.
  • Tap on: Settings and open the Controller category.
  • Tap on: Setup Controller Hardware to open up the binding menu.
  • Controller:
    • If your device is detecting multiple controllers which are unsupported you can choose the device you wish to set up from this dropdown
  • Button Styles:
    • If the button style selected does not match your gamepad, choose the buttons that match your connected gamepad



This menu it navigated by touching the button line and then tapping the button on your controller until it displays BOUND
  • If you accidentally bind a button incorrectly, you can tap it again and either select the Unbind button it or choose a different button to change it.


Required button bindings for the game to function on a gamepad
  • One Axis, ie:
    • Left Stick OR Right Stick OR D-Pad
  • Four Face Buttons ie:
    • A/B/X/Y OR Cross/Circle/Square/Triangle
  • Two Shoulder Buttons, ie:
    • LB/RB OR L1/R1
  • Open Settings Button ie:
    • Menu OR Options

  • If you only set up the minimum, you will need to customise your controls as the pre-set controller bindings expect the full list of buttons bound.

Did you fix the bug when light pets don't spawn after death when equiping the summon item?
 
Yeah, that's the version I mean.

Is it that much more difficult to update the old legacy version compared to the main version? Mostly just asking out of curiosity. Feels odd that the main version gets updates near-instantly where the other version just falls behind.

Not on our end. There appears to be some hiccup on the Google side though. 505/DR trying to work through the issue.

Will it be compatible with a Switch pro controller?

Not sure - I'll ask DR. I know its not necessarily compatible with Joycons. Have you tried a Switch Pro yet?

Yes, I can confirm. Pre-1.3.0.7.9 you were able too, however keyboard controls were a bit bugged. There were significant delays And you weren’t able to fly and move at the same time. This has been fixed in 1.3.0.7.9. Keyboard gameplay is now flawless. Regarding mouse support, I have never come across any issues. Now that the keyboard support is 100%, you can definitely play with keyboard & mouse successfully!

To be clear - this is something being messed around with behind the scenes, so the "support" you are seeing is only that. Officially, KB+M remain unsupported... but you might be able to make them work in some ways.

Not aware of and have never seen this occur on my game. All light pets or just specific ones?
 
I have an issue with the game, autopause if on should pause the game when in inventory, but it doesn’t, it only does when I press on settings. It’s not that big of a deal, but whenever I fight bosses I turn autopause on so I can swap stuff in my inventory safely, and I can’t do that so I have to have everything needed then. Just wanted you to know it doesn’t work the way it probably should.

Every light pet.

That is working as intended in the current mobile build.
 
Switch Pro Controller should be working.

Joy Con - you should be able to set it up to use a single JoyCon, however on all the devices I tired, the input from the device was laggy. You will have to configure the Joy Con buttons via the new Controller setup for entries (make sure you have a the main 4 buttons setup, a left stick, the 2 shoulder buttons and a button mapped onto the settings button.)

When we were developing the controller support we had intended to merge the input from 2 separate joy cons to enable you to use it as 1 joystick with the Dpad / and right axis etc but due to the fact we couldn't see any device operating without lag with joy cons, we felt we couldn't officially support this. If this situation changes I will re-enable this functionality in the game
 
For some reason the controller setup is missing for my Terraria. I can't find it anywhere. I'm on Samsung A50 and I'm using my switch pro controller. I'm running the latest version too

What precisely are you looking for that you cannot find? Remapping is in the settings menu - and not all gamepads will need the "Setup" step.
 
No, I bought the full version and it's updated to the latest version
The Switch Pro Controller should not need to be set up, but the switch pro controller may be limited by to the version of android you're running.
Which android version do you have?
Does the pro controller work for other games you're playing on your device?

I have Android 9 which I suspect is the problem. Also its saying triggers see shoulders and the x and y inputs are swapped. I have tried on stardew valley and same problems
