Hi,

So I'm using v1.4, and getting this strange behavior while playing with a controller.  I play the game fine, usually for a half hour or so, then all of a sudden I get close to 0 FPS.  It will stay that way till I hit a keyboard button, then it goes back to normal.  It will continue to do this every 60 seconds exactly until I reboot my system.  I would think it is some kind of screen saver/power feature, but I have all that stuff turned off while plugged in, which I always am.  Thoughts?

System Specs:

Dell Inspiron 7000
6th Generation Intel® Core™ i7-6700HQ Processor (6M Cache, up to 3.50 GHz)]
8GB Single channel DDR3L 1600MHz (8GBx1)
1TB 5.4k Hybrid HDD + 8G Cache [1TB 5400 rpm Hybrid Hard Drive + 8GB Embedded Flash Cache]
NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 960M 4GB GDDR5
Windows 10

I'd also check to see if your laptop is over heating.  Check what the temps reach after playing the game for about half an hour

I think I figured it out.  I went into the windows advanced power settings and turned off a bunch of power saving items like "shut down Hard Drive after x minutes of inactivity"  Played it for hours yesterday without a hitch.
