Hej Guys,

This mouse bug is still striking on me. I have winxp 64bit and time to time I cannot put comments on the map, or draw on it. After some time, like 30 mins it comes back and again after sometimes it goes. It feels really funny.
Is there any workaround for this. I have tried both mode, use hardware cursor and without it

do you play in windowed mode? or do an alt-tab out of spring?

maybe there is an other program catching hotkeys?

your description about the problem is confusing, can you explain it better what happens? what goes wrong? what are you exactly doing?

next time use the "help & bugs" forum: http://springrts.com/phpbb/viewforum.php?f=11

I had a similar issue and in my case I was accidentally switching keyboard layouts during game play. Windows has a shortcut key combination for this that can be disabled, check the control panel.

that combination would be shift+alt, which is also used when building boxes.
^ is ┬┤ on US keyboard thats why mapdraw doesnt work.
