Atari800 using dpad instead of analog stick?

Hey guys. I’m just curious if there is a way to correct the controls in the Atari800 core? The auto config profile is wrong; Atari 5200 uses an analog stick, not a dpad. This makes playing games very difficult like Centipede, Super Breakout and Missile Command is near impossible.

I was successful at remapping the controls to my left analog stick on my XBone controller but it still acts like a digital pad in the core. I looked around in the core GUI but could not find any option to enable analog control or to correct it. I’m not sure if this is just how it is with the core?

Any ideas?

are you sure that the stick is analog?

Yes, from Wikipedia:
