Describe the bug

Hi all,
I can't find the "Directional Arrows" key in Keymapping Editor while editing the control for game Arknights Endfield (the game itself runs smoothly). As shown in the screenshot below, i only have 3 options when adding a key(Fig 1), compared to the four options shown in the official doc 2.1 (Fig 2). The PlayCover version is 3.1.0.

I thought it was caused by the game or PlayCover software, so i tried other Game ipa installation packs, performed clean uninstall and reinstall of PlayCover and switched to the Nightly Version, the problem still exists. I also tested other random ipa softwares, the Directional Arrows option was still missing.

Is there a solution for this?

Thanks a lot!

Steps to reproduce

Download the 3.1.0 latest release or the Nightly version;
install an ipa pack, then click to open the installed software;
navigate to Keymapping --- open/close keymapping editor;
click anyplace onscreen

Expected behaviour

only 3 key types avaliable
