Issues fixed
Mouse cursor not restricted
- The game does not restrict the mouse cursor, meaning that on multi-monitor configurations instead of moving the camera, the mouse will go onto the other screen, effectively crippling the ability to effectively move the camera in that direction.
Lock cursor with Special K[citation needed] |
