Middle mouse button: framerate trouble

Hi everyone,

I've been (occasionally) playing TA Spring for some years now, mostly BA. And a few weeks ago I tried Spring 1944, and I loved it immediately.
One thing though: whenever I click the middle mouse button (so not for zooming but for the panning), my computer starts having a hard time, framerate drops to 3-4 fps.
I don't have a particularly low-end computer: before clicking the mmb the game is all smooth, even with 6 AI's sending all their iron to battle. So my mmb really is "bewitched" :p
Is there any way of solving this, or even disabling the mmb pan function so I can't accidentally click it during a good game? I searched all available forums and tried to turn mmb off in Config Panel, no work.
(Using lobby ver 0.124 and Spring 0.82.7)

Thanks in advance,
Ludo

Perhaps grab the complete control camera widget (If you grab it from evo, if pretty closely mimics the default f2 behavior)?

https://code.google.com/p/evolutionrts/ ... ra_ccc.lua << Link to it in evo (on the right, you can click view raw file then just copy and paste that into a text file called camera_ccc.lua, then dump the .lua file into your local luaui/widgets folder)

Did the trick. Had to get used to the new ctrl and alt commands, but it works flawless right now, thanks alot!

No worries :-)

Like I said, that one mimics the default f2 camera as much as possible (because I fucking hate the sensitivity based camera movement), so if you ever replace that widget with the default one from the widget database, you'll be in for a bit of a shock (default is quite different) :-)
