Bug Report: Game Crashes and PC Reboots After PS4 Controller Disconnects on PC

1. Bug Summary:

Description: When using a PS4 controller on PC, if the controller disconnects (e.g., due to low battery), the game logs the player out and then crashes. Additionally, the game crash triggers a system crash, causing the PC to reboot automatically.
Expected Behavior: If the PS4 controller disconnects, the game should either pause or provide an error message without logging the player out or causing a system crash.
Actual Behavior: The game logs out the player, crashes, and leads to a complete system reboot.

2. Steps to Reproduce:

Connect a PS4 controller to the PC via USB or Bluetooth.
Start the game and begin playing.
Allow the PS4 controller’s battery to drain or manually disconnect the controller (e.g., by turning off the controller or unplugging it).
Observe that the game logs you out, crashes, and causes the PC to reboot automatically.

3. Impact Assessment:

Severity: Critical – This issue not only affects the gameplay but also causes the system to reboot, leading to potential data loss or progress disruption.
