Issues fixed

Mouse aiming deadzone

By default, the game has a mouse "deadzone" effect that ignores small mouse movements. This can make precision aiming with ranged weapons difficult to impossible. An option to disable this "feature" has been included with one of the patches.

Notes

  1. 1.0 1.1 File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/371660/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (371660) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
