Controller/Gamepad UI showing up on top of old UI
Won't Fix
First of all, love the way the controller support is looking with the Anniversary update. However, the UI for the controller stuff shows up whenever I use the left and right stick and flashes between that and the original UI. If you see the screenshots they show both, keep in mind these two screenshots are constantly flashing between each other. One thing to note, it seems to only happen when the stick is pushed all the way, if I keep the stick near the center but enough so I walk slowly the controller UI doesn't appear.
I have the same bug 
Hello Engineer,
This sort of behavior happens when there is simultaneously input from a gamepad AND keyboard and mouse.
Usually when one of those methods of input is mechanically stuck (button stuck, key stuck, etc...).
Try checking your method of input for stuck keys/buttons and if that does not help, go to Options->Controls->Controllers and in the drop-down menu named Joystick or gamepad select the Disabled option.
Bear in mind, that the gamepad will no longer be recognized automatically and you will have to manually enable it again in order to use it instead of keyboard and mouse.
If the keys/buttons are not stuck and your gamepad is calibrated, then please respond here to make us aware.
We hope that helps and wish you a nice day,

That was my assumption, that it was registering as mouse & gamepad input at the same time as I've seen similar issues in other games before. However in this case I was only using the gamepad (not bumping the mouse) and this only occurs when the gamepad joysticks are at the outer edges of their range, not when they're closer to the center.
I've already checked to make sure the steam controller input/remapping was disabled but I'll look more closely into that. I also tried re-installing the game in case there were any settings made previously to this update that may have carried over.
Is there anywhere other than the %AppData%/Roaming location that save data may be stored? I had previously used the steam controller remapping to be able to get Space Engineers to work with my controller before support was officially added and I strongly believe this is a symptom of that sticking around?

It was an issue with Steam. When I went into the Space Engineers Properties page on Steam and change the "Steam Input per-game setting" to 'Forced Off' it resolved the issue.

I have a steam controller and when I try using it the overlay keeps flashing as described also it ignores any input also whenever the controller is on the menu selection marker goes to the top of each open menu even preventing mouse and keyboard input I have to turn off the controller in order to change any settings there is no issue with the controller it works as intended with other games

I have the same problem!
I am sure I did not operate the keyboard and mouse, but it still happened!
This has seriously affected the gaming experience.

Hello, Engineers!
Because there is no new comment from you, and we are unable to reproduce the issue on our own, I will close this thread now as outdated.
If you or any other player will experience this issue again, please make a new thread and provide all needed info there.
Thank you for understanding.
