The mouse needs to be fixed

Recommended Posts

So as you know how ArmA/DayZ works is when you are controlling a mouse in a menu/inventory you can see your curser and when you close that menu your curser then moves to the nearest corner. So if I leave my curser near the bottum left corner of my screen and then close the menu my mouse will move unitl it is touching the bottum left corner. Now I have complained about this and so have others because when you have two/three monitors like I do then the mouse doesn't stay on the primary display. The mouse moves ALL THE WAY to the left or ALL THE WAY to the right whenever I leave a menu. This created accidental minimization issues and in general hurts the DayZ expirience. So devs please make the mouse like how it is in CS:GO or insurgency where when you open a menu the mouse spawns in the middle of the screen and when you close it then re-open it the mouse again spawns in the middle of the screen. This is a great system and allows for muscle memory to grab things quick. Please fix the mouse.

 

TL;DR Read it

Yes this is an issue, but don't be surprised if it isn't a priority on the devs "to do" list. Posts like this can't hurt letting them know there is an issue, but its probably more helpful to make a bug report (or upvote an existing one) - just don't hold your breath for a quick fix :) .

I have two monitors and yes, I have a similar issue.  It bothers me that when I'm moving my mouse aiming or whatever I can see my mouse cursor on my second screen moving around.  It's as if it doesn't stay within the game screen.  Even more annoying is when I open my inventory and have to move it over from the second screen.  I will just have to live with it until they fix it... not sure if there is a bug report on this though.

I have three monitors as well, but the issue doesn't plague me that much. Never had an accidental min, mainly because I control my cursor when I'm in a "menu" type screen. The only issue I've ever had is the "ghost" cursor high-lighting or hover-menuing something I have on the other screen.

The times I have accidental minimization is when I am in the inventory and pull my mouse curser from the left monitor to the pirmary and think I ma over the object in the "vecinity box" and click into the desktop. The issue would be resolved if I just didn't have to move my mouse so far.
