Temporarily disable mouse lock
« on: May 05, 2014, 08:28:46 pm »
I usually play at a resolution of 960x600, windowed. I do so because I like the game not covering the entire screen (which for space reasons has to be closer to me than I'd like). Unfortunately, the window has a tendency to start in a position I don't want it in so every OpenXcom session starts with me going to the settings, disabling mouse lock, moving the windows and then re-entering the settings and re-enabling mouselock.

It would be great if there was a key combination (or maybe just a single key) which would disable mouse lock while it's pressed. Then I could start OpenXcom, hold Ctrl+Alt (or whatever the combo is) and move the window. That would take some of the hassle out of using mouselocked windowed mode.

you can, alternately, set your windowed mode position in the config file so you don't have to move it at all, or get a third party program like cursor lock to do it for you.
