Gamepad controls fix for xbox one controller
So I have the game via GOG, and it can play fine with mouse and keyboard but the gamepad is not right (I have Xbox one for windows). Pcgamingwiki says to edit the inputtemplate files in the game directory and also the configuration file directory (which is where the save files are stored), except that file does not exist in the config directory.

I also installed the game on my steam deck via heroic game launcher and added the game to steam with it. The controller works OK, but a couple things:

The right trigger is mapped to both the camera along with the gas. I guess I would have to change this in the inputtemplate file.

Also on the ui, keyboard prompts will show up until I move the joystick and then the controller prompt will show. When driving it just shows the keyboard prompts.

How do I fix this? I am using the fusion fix mod and the care package mod, so I am not sure if the 2nd one is causing problems or not.

Edit: It seems I found the solution https://www.reddit.com/r/TheSaboteur/comments/j9lzt7/graphicscontroller_problems_fix_for_the_gog/?rdt=40653

Basically, find the InputTemplates.txt file (in the GOG game files) and copy all the text under the 360 CONTROLLER section and paste it under the OTHER GAMEPAD section. This will cause an xbox one controller to work properly as well as display xbox prompts for everything.
