I use a wireless Xbox ONE Controller and the Wireless Adapter on my laptop and PC, I also use the Microsoft rechargeable battery pack in my controller instead of AA batteries. A the moment I am using the laptop as I am in Hospital so I haven't been able to see if this happens on my PC yet until I get discharged in a few days.
The problem is that when the controller is inactive for 15 mins it turns itself off, even when I have it connected to my charger via the MicroUSB cable. When this happens I get a "Please Reconnect Controller" message appear on the game. Normally just pressing the power button on the controller reconnects it but this game won't detect this (I even tried unplugging and reconnecting the Wireless Adapter). The keyboard/Mouse is locked out and without any means of getting the game to recognize the controller being reconnected, I am forced to ALT+F4 out of the game, losing all of the progress I made since my last save room. This happened on the original release, is still happening on the v1.04 patch and the v1.05 patch is not available for the game in my library (I am in Australia if that helps).
I sought help in the Steam forums too, regarding this issue and a lot of people that have the same controller and adaptor are saying it reconnects for them the instant they press the power button on their controller since the original release version, so I think this may be related specifically to the GOG release, so I am posting this help thread here to see if I can get some assistance.
At the Moment I am using an ACER Predator Helios 300 (W10 Home x64, 8th Gen i7 +16Gb DDR4 + 6Gb GTX1060). It is connected to a Logitech K260 wireless keyboard and a Logitech G502 Proteus core mouse+extension cord, so I can use the laptop in my hospital bed, with my monitor from home at the end of my bed connected to the laptop via a HDMI cable as my display, but the keyboard on the laptop won't respond either.
Please assist. I find it frustrating to have to find a save room before I can take a break, so I don't lose so much progress by having to ALT+F4 out of the game and restart it just for the game to recognize the controller was turned back on. It seems once the game detects that a controller is being used the keyboard and mouse no longer can be used in-game and the only thing I can do with said keyboard is ALT+F4.
