Description

Hi
currently, seems every Virtual Controllers are hardcoded to the maximum battery level except for Virtual DualSense, and that at least for the case of using physical DualSense

Virtual DualSense using physical DualSense is perfect since it also show the Controller is charging if the physical DualSense is charging too

so it will be nice if other Virtual Controllers set their battery levels based on physical Controller similar to Virtual DualSense case, BTW, I did use https://ds.daidr.me/ to test, and seems it work only with DualSense and DS4, so I based my hypothesis on testing both DualSense and DS4

thanks

Research direction

Start by locating the virtual-controller battery handling and comparing Virtual DualSense behavior with the other virtual controllers. Use the physical DualSense and DS4 cases, including charging status, as the reference and test with https://ds.daidr.me/. Done means supported virtual controllers report their physical controller's battery level and charging state instead of always showing maximum.
