Minor issues

You should obtain a lock on the mouse. For those with dual mons, its very difficult to maneuver around the map on the side with the other monitor since instead of moving, the mouse just leaves the game and goes to the other monitor. In addition, are the controls up for debate/change? I have a few ideas about what I feel would make Spring easier to use.

Nothing is set in stone I guess.

What is the windows api command for locking the mouse ?

im not sure, im looking it up and asking a dev at microsoft if he knows. for now though, a good way to lock it is to clamp it's values between the current resolution. it is pretty straightforward to manually manipulate the mouse position.

To lock a mouse, unplug it :] (Cursor won't move then)

Thanks for that. Threads should auto-lock after 30 days of inactivity to be honest.
