Input management in is bizarre. Plug the same controller into a different machine, or just restart the Unity editor, and the buttons have suddenly been remapped for no apparent reason. What am I supposed to do?

I’ve been doodling my whole life, and regularly practicing and studying drawing for the last several years. Late Saturday night, while lying down on the couch, I doodled this pile of flower sprigs from memory. It’s all in ink, with no pencil under-sketch.
