It may be worth to note that IF input is sent, input can be read.

However on PC at least, the input isn’t sent. The xbox controller overtakes the game with it’s own interface thing and no input is passed down to the game in my brief testing.  
I’m still digging through it realistically, so maybe I hooked something incorrectly.

The issue - for me at least - becomes finding out if the controller even registers the button press.
