Cannot Select 4th and 5th Emote in the Emote Wheel

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide Bugs
1

Issue Description:
Cannot select emote pass the 3rd in the emote wheel. The arrow indicator only points to the top-left quadrant despite the fact that I can move my mouse anywhere.

I suspect this is caused by the game not handling high resolution well enough. When my cursor is at the right edge of the screen, the arrow is pointing upwards; at the bottom edge, and the arrow is pointing left.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. 4K resolution, Windows scaling 200%
  2. Hold the emote key in Mournstar
  3. Move cursor

Platform:
Steam

Reproduction Rate:
Constant (100%)

Please forward to the dev team:

The bug is probably here:

local cursor_position = IS_XBS and UIResolution.scale_vector(cursor, scale) or UIResolution.inverse_scale_vector(cursor, inverse_scale)

No need to scale the cursor positon. This will affect anyone who plays in other than 1080p resolution.

I have this same problem, I suspected it might have something to do with the game detecting my lexip mouse as a joystick. The emote menu works as intended for my friend: he can just click on the emote he wants.
For me it moves the cursor back and forth through the emotes depending on my mouse movements as if I were using a controller, and it’s usually stuck on the left 3, I can only get it to go to the right 2 emotes with a lot of fiddling and difficulty.
I am playing on 1440p, my friend on 1080p.
