GamePad Button Released acting weird

How do I...?

I was trying to add controller support for my games menu but it kept glitching out so I made a new project to mess around with gamepads and it gives me the same issue. I setup a state variable that I change to indicate what page my menu is on. Using a keyboard it switches just fine but with a controller it stops working correctly after the first switch. Not sure if it’s a bug or I’m doing something wrong.

Try to add Trigger Once in the Button “ABXY” of gamepad is released, to ensure that event runs just one time.

Do like if gamepad is connected
— condition:
Addvanced AND
---- gampad “ABXY” is released
---- variable state = 0

Triggers don’t seem to fix anything.

I made some modifications tested with an 8bitdo controller and works fine. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Gmp0DCI_gFZyOgOYJDeDrVQYABV17oGR/view?usp=sharing

That fixed it but I’m wondering why gamepad released requires a trigger once condition but keyboard released doesn’t?

I definitely don’t like having to make the gamepad button releases parent to the page variables for organizational reasons but I did it anyway.
