Have you tried it with two monitors on PC? The mouse goes off the edge of the screen where the second monitor is making it very hard to scroll.

If you do go off and click on the second monitor then it all goes to pieces.

The function you want is "ClipCursor"...

This seems to be fixed in version 1.3 . I suffered from the same problem, but it's not happening any more. It might have been fixed in an earlier version, but I jumped straight to 1.3

The 1.3 version doesn't work for me unfortunately.  My mouse still goes to the other monitor (my primary monitor is to the right of my secondary monitor).

I have this problem in 1.3.

Confirm.

Windoze XP, dual Monitor - game uses left (primary) Monitor only, the right monitor seems... unhappy.

Same here. Funny that this issue is still around in quite a few games, not that hard to fix, after all.

Here's how to fix this problem (in code), so hopefully Kyle or whoever does the programming can get it done for the next patch.

When you create your input (assuming you're using directx for this), you need to set your cooperative level and include DISCL_EXCLUSIVE as one of the flags (more on this here: [url=http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb219804(VS.85).aspx]http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb219804(VS.85).aspx[/url]).

Please, please fix this.  I refuse to play this awesome game because it's so very annoying on my setup and it's so incredibly easy to fix.

What this guy said.

Having an ASDW and/or arrowkey scroll option would also solve the problem.

bumping the thread for (hopefully) a fix. just installed the game on steam this morning and it's so very frustrating to play.
