changedThumbstick SupportPreviously thumbsticks worked like track pads, you would have to click down to get the teleport beam. Now, by selecting "Use THUMBSTICK" in the preferences menu, you only need to push forward to get a teleport beam (or push back to drop a carried item). When the thumbstick is allowed to re-center, the teleport is executed.

changedGrip Button PickupPreviously objects could only be picked up by the trigger button. Now, by selecting "Grip PICKUP" in the preferences menu, objects will be picked up by using the grip button. Like the trigger, if you just click and release the grip button the object will be carried. Release in the same way as the trigger. If you click and hold the grip button in, when you release the grip, the item will drop.
