lilgec Posted October 3, 2021 Report Share Posted October 3, 2021 (edited) I'm sorry for making yet another thread, I know this is suggested from time to time already, but I was hopeful that we'd get the option in the Homesteading update. Seeing as my hopes and dreams have been crushed yet again, I'm creating a thread. Sorry! Can we please get an option to toggle the Lock/Unlock mouse cursor option? It's not the biggest deal because I can find a few workarounds (opening chat locks the cursor, but you cannot change the mode of whatever tool is being used; opening inventory and moving it nearly off screen works but does obscure portions of the screen, etc) but they feel janky as hell to use, especially when there's literally an option to make my mouse not an aneurism to use while smithing - it's just that this option requires dexterity IRL since I'm lefty. It just feels bad to have to use such janky workarounds when there *is* an option to avoid having to do such things lmao please add toggle mouse cursor option Edited October 3, 2021 by lilgec 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Streetwind Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 In what scenarios do you need your mouse cursor unlocked that the game doesn't automatically unlock it for you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilgec Posted October 6, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2021 (edited) Smithing/Knapping/Clayforming. You know, a pretty large part of the game? lol I do mention smithing directly in my post. Edited October 6, 2021 by lilgec Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kolyenka Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 isn't that just what immersive mouse mode does? i know it's not a perfect system (having to hold alt to do stuff in your inventory is annoying as hell), but it unlocks the mouse in all situations, and then introduces the use of alt as a toggle to turn it off.

RogueRaiden Posted November 19, 2021 Report Share Posted November 19, 2021 (edited) What I was going to start a new thread for: simply a toggle option just like the Toggle Sprint option for when you press the "lock/unlock" cursor button. So you can have BOTH the options to press and hold a button to keep your mouse unlocked OR press it once and its unlocked then press again to lock. It would help out immensely in Immersive Mouse mode, especially when I'm looking to clear my inventory with 9 chests open I wont have to hold the cursor unlock button for 5 straight minutes or longer Edited November 19, 2021 by RogueRaiden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gibbelblonk Posted January 18, 2022 Report Share Posted January 18, 2022 This is really needed, my joints are exploding at this point from holding down alt for hours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Open the inventory or character sub-screen when knapping, clay forming or forging as an alternative to mashing the alt key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maelstrom Posted January 19, 2022 Report Share Posted January 19, 2022 When you are knapping a stone tool, forming a clay item or working an ingot on an anvil, press c (the character stats screen) and it will lock the screen the same as holding down the alt key. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maelstrom Posted January 19, 2022 Report Share Posted January 19, 2022 Works in non-immersive mouse mode which many people play in (and seems to be default playstyle). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
