Valve adds beta macro support to the Steam Controller

Valve has rolled out a beta macro feature for the Steam Controller that lets one button trigger a sequence of commands with customizable timing and order. It targets fighting games, RTS and sims, though position-dependent mechanics and strict timing can limit its use.

• Macros are configured via "Edit Multi-Button Timing" in controller settings
• Players can set command order and adjust timing between inputs
• Limitations include position-dependent execution and strict timing in some games
• The feature also improves accessibility for players with physical challenges
