Getting tired of Forever’s base A/B/X/Y face buttons not being rebindable?

Controller Rebound lets you put your own conditional spells or macros on bare A/B/X/Y without breaking Forever’s native controller system.

Without usable bare face-button bindings, you can end up training yourself to hold LT or RT throughout combat encounters. I speak from experience: that can become wrist and hand pain fast. It feels like a major controller-accessibility oversight by Blizzard.

Controller Rebound keeps the normal controller layout intact, while giving bare A/B/X/Y meaningful conditional actions.

Features

• Assign a spell or macro to bare A, B, X, or Y.
• Choose when each action should activate: target type, target life state, combat state, and group state.
• If a rule does not match, the normal Forever action still happens.
• LT, RT, LT+RT, LB, RB, and LB+RB face-button layers remain fully native.
• Works both in and out of combat.
• No Steam remapping or keyboard-emulation workaround required.
• Keeps Forever’s native targeting, shortcut, and action-bar layers intact.
• Macro support, including safe automatic macro updates after out-of-combat edits.
• Cooldown feedback for spells and supported macros.
• Resource feedback when you do not have enough mana, energy, rage, etc.
• Clear red out-of-range feedback for supported direct spells.
• Separate Controller Rebound profiles for each character.
• Draggable face-button cluster. (drag from center of the 4 buttons)

How to use it

1. Drag a spell or macro onto one of the visible A/B/X/Y buttons.
2.  Click the small cog in the lower-right corner of that button to configure its rule.
3. Click and drag the space in the centre of the four buttons to move the whole cluster.

Feedback and testing

I’m a developer, but I built Controller Rebound with AI assistance. If that is not for you, please skip it.

If you are happy to test an AI-assisted community addon, I would really appreciate feedback from different classes, controllers, layouts, and gamepad setups.
