Explanation

If my joystick accidentally disconnects while I'm in the game, I can't reconnect it and have to restart the game.
To go into more detail: while I'm playing, the cable might come loose or I might accidentally unplug it as I move around. Steam notifies me that the controller has disconnected, and immediately after I reconnect it, Steam notifies me that it has reconnected. However, if the game is already open during this process, it stops recognizing the controller, and to get it working again, you have to close and reopen the game. I should mention that I’ve disabled Steam Input because when it was active, it showed me the Xbox icons instead of the PS icons.
