Mouse pointer

[J1N6666]

Hello, all!

New to the forum / game.

1st thing I'd like to report is that the mouse pointer is not lined up to where it should be.

I use a windows Vista 64x.

That is all.

Lined up, as in the graphic?

Or lined up as, you click on something --------------------------->Here but actually click on something ----------------------------->Here?

sometimes i do indeed click on units or buildings without anything happening. sometimes for boxing units as well

[J1N6666]

Oh, my bad.

Lined up, as in the graphic?

Or lined up as, you click on something --------------------------->Here but actually click on something ----------------------------->Here?

This is what I meant.

The mouse pointer is seen but when I click, it is actually vertically off for some reason.

Thanks for the report! We need some more info.

How big is the difference, a few pixels or more? I have seen a cursor offset bug on OS X, but not yet on Windows.

Do you start the game in fullscreen mode? Is the cursor offset from the start of the game? What happens if you switch to windowed mode (Alt+Enter)?

Also, please attach the system_info.txt log from the game's log folder.

The mouse in game cursor points to the upper left with an arrow. but what it is actually pointing to is on the bottom left. Basically, it's pointing to the upper left corner but it's actually on the bottom left.

Do you start the game in fullscreen mode?

Yes I start the game in full screen mode.

Is the cursor offset from the start of the game?

Yes, it starts off misaligned.

What happens if you switch to windowed mode (Alt+Enter)?

OH WOW! Switching into windowed mode actually fixes the mouse cursor misalignment.

However, I dislike playing in windowed mode due to accidentally clicking on things outside of the game.

Please add this information as well as that would help a lot with finding the cause of the problem

I'm thinking of adding a config option to toggle SDL2's real/fake fullscreen mode. There are numerous bugs related to fullscreen, but I can't reproduce most of them and there's no easy way to test as changing this requires a rebuild.

There we go.

Sorry, I meant to do it the first time but forgot.

Just wondering, did I upload the correct log?

I would like to get full screen running as soon as I can.

Thanks, that is the correct log. I am going to update to a newer version of SDL2 in SVN, it would help to have as many people testing it as possible, once that happens
