Crashes consistently when using controller
Hi! I've played StS about 600 hours on switch, but picked up the steam version specifically to play this mod! (very impatient waiting for my copy to ship) As such, i'm much more comfortable playing with a controller.

However, using a controller causes this mod to crash in specific scenarios. It seems that effects that require you to choose a target cause the crash. I've been able to consistently replicate this with both The Boot and Double Tap.

Something i noticed, is that the effects in question seem to be implemented slightly differently than targeting effects in vanilla, ex. playing an attack. The vanilla effects show little corner brackets around the target, while board game specific effects do not show the brackets. The highlighting brackets seem to be related to how the controller interface navigates between select-able targets, so my guess is that the crash is somehow related to the lack of brackets. The crash is triggered when these effects are initiated (ex. at start of turn when die rolls 4/5/6 with The Boot) if the controller is currently in use, however if i initiate the effect with KBM and switch back to the controller while targeting then it does not crash, instead the dotted arrow stays stuck in position and there is no way to interact without switching back to KBM.

Also worth noting! The character selection screen does not work at all with controller. It doesn't crash, so it works fine ultimately, but it's still very disrupting.
