Thrustmaster T.Flight HOTAS X controller not working as expected

Godot version

System information

Linux, GLES3

Issue description

It looks like the Thrustmaster T.Flight HOTAS X controller (https://support.thrustmaster.com/en/product/tflighthotasx-en/) mapping is incorrect / does not exist. Maybe there is a way to add the correct mapping to the godotcontrollerdb.txt file? I could help with that.

Steps to reproduce

N/A

Minimal reproduction project

No response

Here are the mapping strings for the Thrustmaster T.Flight HOTAS X controller:

Still present in Godot 3.4. Is there anything I can do about this issue?

The game controller database PR wasn't merged: mdqinc/SDL_GameControllerDB#508

I'm not sure how we're supposed to handle this. I suppose a similar issue will also occur with steering wheels, but I have neither a steering wheel nor an HOTAS to confirm this.

I was able to solve this problem by calling Input.set_use_accumulated_input(true). It now detects the input correctly and I can use the InputMap to correctly assign the axes.

See #55037.

I'm a bit surprised by this because this issue was reported against 3.3.4 initially, which defaults to input accumulation enabled.

Then it did regression in 3.4 (from 3.4 beta 4 onward) where input accumulation was disabled by default. If enabling it manually solves your issue, I would expect that 3.3.4 should have worked fine.

Do you still have the issue on 3.3.4 with and without Input.set_use_accumulated_input(true)?

Everything works as expected now in Godot 3.5, thank you!
