Mapview is suddenly pulling to the right no matter what I do

Post by 30winter »

Uh... I have no idea how this happened, but I was playing the game normally last night and when I tried to relaunch and load my save today the map keeps pulling to the right. I can move the view to the left fine, but as soon as I release the A key or move my mouse pointer away from the left hand side of the screen it will start to pan right again.

I initially thought it was the save, but I tried loading up different scenarios and other saves that used to be just fine and I have the same issue there.

The only things I have hooked up to the computer is the keyboard and the mouse.

Thank you for any advice.

Weird. Changed the DPI on my mouse and for some reason the game stopped pulling to the right. So nevermind, odd stuff. :)

Are you playing windowed or full screen? What resolution?

I am playing full screen and 1920x1080. But for me, its no longer a problem as changing the mouse dpi fixed it for me. :) (well, seemingly fixed it. All I know is that after I switched it the problem stopped. Could be a coincidence)

Same issue. Slides up and to the left. Game unplayable.

Most likely a controller problem on your side. Unplug all game controllers, switch mouse if necessary. This should do it.
Had the same issue once.

Having the exact same issue so it is likely related to the game. No biggie but looking forward to a patch to make the game playable again. (changing PPI did not work)

Hi Pegon,

We've solved this for people so far by having them check that they've not got any extra controllers plugged in. Can you check that? Controller drivers can overlap sometimes and so the game is getting false inputs.
