Cursor misaligned

Ashbury · 03-21-2018, 02:46 PM

If I use the mouse to choose something within the game, often I will end up with an item directly below the one I thought I clicked on.

When the cursor looks like a little hand, I tend to aim with the pointer finger - but I have figured out that the "thumb" is more centered on where the click will take effect.

Maybe it's something I'll get used to, but it seems incorrect rather than just a design choice. Has anyone else encountered this in the Beta version?

FWIW, I was running into it while doing roster management as GM, and not in 3D playing mode.

I have having the same issue with the mouse cursor. The mouse is about a thumb below where the program thinks it is.... very annoying...

Is this happening after you guys have minimized the game at some point?

If you resize the window you're playing in, like by maximizing it, does that fix the problem?

Minimizing has no effect here, resizing window is not the cause,

I've had the problem playing full screen mode, but not in windowed mode.

Oddly, the problem has gone away for me, even before installing the official release yesterday. It seems to have been just the one session, or maybe a couple of sessions, and then it corrected itself.

Having retired from the software QA business myself, I can see how a report like this can be frustrating to read. (Also as an ex-software guy I notice I didn't even mention I'm using Windows 10 on an HP Split laptop.)

/ Edit: like the poster above, I now understand that the problem only occurs in full-screen mode. When it's windowed, the cursor works as expected. I didn't notice this before, because on my small screen laptop the windowed format doesn't let me change the window size at all, so it's practically the same as full-screen.

For me.... I can maximize it and it fixes the problem but if I keep it maximized and quit the game.... when I start it back up again it segfaults and goes back to defaults
