[1.08 BUG] Mouse points to wrong grid tile

from Elemental Forums

Hello,

 

first thing on new patch I notice is that I dont select that tile my mouse cursor hovers over.

Its somehow difficult to click on the desired tile. Looks like the tiles shown on the map are "overlapping".

When I hover in the mid of a just green gras tile and to the right is a gold mine, the ground description still says gold mine while hovering in the grass tile (nearly in the mid!)

 

It makes no difference whether I choose software or hardware mouse cursor... I didnt notice such a behaviour in previous verisions.

 

btw. the edge scrolling is still horrible... :(

 

Now back to testing new patch... :)

I haven't downloaded 1.08 yet (will do so tonight), but I had a very similar problem in 1.07 in the tactical battle screens.  Switching from fullscreen to windowed (at full resolution) fixed it.  Does that work for you?  Of course you'll lose the edge scrolling, but that might not be a problem :grin:

Yes, it was a real problem ESPECIALLY if a large unit was on the tactical battlefield like the dragon from that one quest.  It was exquisitely difficult to send a unit to a tile anywhere near the dragon regardless of what angle you viewed the tactical battle from (wish the tac battles had the 1, 2, 3, 4 angles similar to the strategic map). :/  Sometimes the terrain itself made it difficult, with where your mouse was pointing not exactly correlating to the grid tiles.

hmm, somehow the cursor does it better now after restarting the game with hardware cursor selected...

 

strange...
