Apex Not Recognizing Controller to MKB Mapping Software, MASSIVE FPS DROP!!!

This is another attempt to get a response from someone on the Apex team to recognize the issue I have been reporting for the past 5 days, about frame rate drops when using an XB1 Controller and Mouse + shortcuts. ON PC

I have a controller to keyboard mapping program running and the game STILL picks up the Xbox Controller, causing stuttering and flickering, dropping the frames DRASTICALLY!

A "Disable Controller Input" function would resolve this.  I am also attaching an image of the function that was implemented on "Fortnite" that completely resolved this issue in their free-to-play Battle Royale.  I also attached a video of the issue occurring.  

Sorry, my buddy's audio is a bit loud. Stuttering and frame rate drop can be seen when aiming down sights and moving the crosshairs. You can also see the switch from XB1 to PC and back. I currently have a mapping software running while this is happening, so the XB1 controller should not even be recognized, but is.

    He’s playing on Xbox @SugondeeezBalls. He’s using a 3rd party device to use m+kb, which is considered cheating.

    Good for him, for it not working. He needs to learn to aim with analog sticks.

    Neither of you are correct.  I am using a XB1 Controller for movement and abilities and a mouse with keybind shortcuts for aim and abilities.  I am playing on PC.

    This function on Fortnite I gave an example of is for PC only.

    This is a PC issue, not a console issue.

    Why not just use a KB? Unless you want to move between 45 and 90 degrees, but that’s negligible at best.

    For me, it's a comfortability.  I am not comfortable and do not enjoy playing on a keyboard.  But for others, there are many people with disabilities that make this style of play accessible to them.  So while I'm playing this way for comfort, there are those that play this way out of necessity
