Smartmoves got stuck

Open Spikeone opened this issue 6 years ago • 5 comments

I encountered a strange bug which was observable by the following behavior:

  • Scrolling by rightclicking felt like it had some kind of force feedback, means by move the mouse a bit the screen moved quite a lot the further you scrolled. Also the scrollspeed was increased, making it easy to scroll the map several times by move the mouse less than a node
  • Smartmove for mouse positioning didn't work anymore. The cursor was always placed in the upper left corner (close) which means you had to wait before you could do the 2nd click, move the mouse to the button and then click or you'd just close the window
  • The cursor was sometimes positioned off, that way the window for a new building often was missplaced as the cursor first jumped to the possible upper left corner of the new window, then the window opened and the cursor jumped again

Sadly I could no reproduce this play playing the replay. I only know after which GF this problem occured (248000+) so not sure if it could possibly help.

I don't get it exactly. Do you say this happens only sometimes? Because this stuff is independent from any game specific stuff...

  • Could not reproduce with SDL2
  • Don't really understand. Just tried with place-flag window and cursor was placed at the button.
  • Same here.

Which videoDriver are you using? Try SDL2 and see if it works there. IMO we should fully switch to SDL2 and remove support for changing it and dynamic loading. Just makes development harder and bug reports less precise.

Can't reproduce it either.

  • SDL2
  • Windowed 1920x1080

Rewatched my video but you can't really see it there either. Still can only say:

  • moving the mouse 5 nodes in one direction results in nearly scroling the whole map
  • Smartmoves did not work correctly, mouse was placed but not on buttons

Happened again today, mouse moves to the upper left corner when opening any context window but not including any building windows.

Is this fully reproducible? I.e. happens everytime? What exactly do you mean by "context window"?

Sadly it doesn't happen everytime but this time I got a video, gotta check that out later.
