Saving gamepad inputs to config file.

I’m using the remap controls tutorial from the Godot website, but I’m having trouble getting it to save gamepad controls to the .cfg file.

var config = ConfigFile.new()
	var err = config.load(CONFIG_FILE)
	if err: #Assuming that options.cfg doesn't exist.
		for action_name in INPUT_ACTIONS:
			var action_list = InputMap.get_action_list(action_name)
			# There could be multiple actions in the list, but we save the first one by default
			var scancode = OS.get_scancode_string(action_list[1].scancode)
			config.set_value("input", action_name, scancode)
		config.save(CONFIG_FILE)

I’ve changed the var scancode line to str(action_list)which saves the following to the config:

[input]

up="[[InputEventKey:43], [InputEventJoypadButton:44], [InputEventJoypadMotion:45]]"
down="[[InputEventKey:46], [InputEventJoypadButton:47], [InputEventJoypadMotion:48]]"
left="[[InputEventKey:49], [InputEventJoypadButton:50], [InputEventJoypadMotion:51]]"
right="[[InputEventKey:52], [InputEventJoypadButton:53], [InputEventJoypadMotion:54]]"
jump="[[InputEventKey:55], [InputEventJoypadButton:56]]"
fire="[[InputEventKey:57], [InputEventJoypadButton:58]]"
dash="[[InputEventKey:67], [InputEventJoypadButton:68]]"
prev="[[InputEventKey:61], [InputEventJoypadButton:62]]"
next="[[InputEventKey:59], [InputEventJoypadButton:60]]"
select="[[InputEventKey:63], [InputEventJoypadButton:64]]"
start="[[InputEventKey:65], [InputEventJoypadButton:66]]"

If anything, I just need an example of how to load these values into my InputMap without pulling my hair out. Thanks in advance.

Completely forgot that this had been answered. My bad.
