SteamVR:
- Added VR Settings > Dashboard > Allow Undocked Dashboard Overlay Interaction. Defaults to off, until we have a better solution for interacting with underlying VR app input.
- Fix for unresponsive Steam menu when viewing VR Settings while a VR game is running.
- Fix for File Explorer window sometimes popping up when launching SteamVR. This was previously reported as fixed in 2.1.7, but did not actually make it into that version.
- Improved controller role assignment when using multiple sets of controllers. When a controller goes to standby or when a controller reconnects after being powered off or disconnected, allow the left and right hand assignments to change if a more suitable controller is found. Actively moving controllers are given priority over idle controllers when all other conditions are equal.
