Where is the file "gamescope-session" and how do I turn off read-only mode so I can edit it? #3879

Description

@Mordins-sol

The file that's closest to what I need is located in /usr/share/gamescope-session-plus/

The file is called:
gamescope-session-plus

This has the exact line I need to edit:
--hide-cursor-delay from 3000 - 3 secs to -1 or some large number

gamescope-session-plus has this line with a variable that's editted later in the file.

I can't edit this file and the only solution I found was someone saying to create identical folder structure but in /usr/local/share and save the file there but that didn't work.

The issue is in dota 2 and few other games the mouse cursor disappears after 3 secs which normally wouldn't be a problem but i'm on rog with controller so the binds don't require cursor at all times and when it comes back it causes lag/stutter.

This is the only solution I found but it's specifically for steamos as you can turn off read-only mode on that:
