Does Steam on Linux offer the same controller settings? You can basically map gamepad buttons to any action of the keyboard / mouse and save it as a layout that will be activated each time you launch the game.

I really wish the gampad controls were better. Which I know is a dumb thing to want for a game as complex as this.

I’m just glad there’s finally mouse support lol

How'd you judge the Steam / GUI version?
I did like one playthrough of the original a long time ago, maxed out at 200 dwarfs and then eventually stopped, just to never touch it again because I could not be arsed to learn the controls & UI again.
I like the depth of DF but there's titles like Odd Realm or Songs of Syx that are much easier to get into after taking a break.

Much much better with mouse support. Still not perfect, definitely needs tweaks but DFHack helps with some of that. Much more playable now
