This is what I do to connect ps4 controller to Gold rush. Start your pc and do NOT have controller connected. When you start steam then you connect controller via cabel. Go in settings and check If steam is connected to controller. Then you open gold rush via exe. Dont start gold rush on steam But via exe. When you are in the menu on gold rush where you can load a game your controller has a blue light or another Color. If not then Unplug the cable from controller end plug in again. Start your game and If the controller is still not working then Unplug and plug in again when you are in game. This works for me. If I open gold rush via steam it sometimes dont work. If Nothing off this works then cry.. it helps. ☺ then start over again.

Go to
Steam > Settings > Controller > General > make sure the config box is UNTICKED / blank. Start game and see if it works. At least that was the solution for myself.
