Explanation

Hello. I got some nasty bug due to steam overlay.
When I use steam chat through steam overlay, my mouse sensitivity going almost to zero (cursor still moves fine in settings menu).
I never have had something like this before. Started to happen two days ago, when I pressed “C” button to invite someone through ESC menu for first time in my life.
The only fix is relaunch of the game. Sadly, I had to disable steam overlay for this game, otherwise it's impossible relaunching the game and reconnecting almost every mission.
Last time when I got this bug, I didn’t relaunch the game, because I was on final stage of the mission and I wanted to finish it. Eventually the game has been crashed, after crash it asked to send a report which I did.
