dual monitor problem

Post by KaptainKruton »

I am using the windows bzflag, version 2.0.4. I use a ATI 9600 XT video card on 2 monitors. When I run the game on my primary monitor, the mouse is not limited to that screen and can move to the secondary monitor. If I am not careful and try to fire while the mouse is on the second bzflag is minimized and focus is brought to the windows desktop or the object i clicked on in the second monitor. Is there a way to limit the mouse to the first monitor while the game is running?

Thank you,
Josh

Selecting confine mouse doesn't work for me either. I should have posted that in my first post.

Confine Mouse has some problems on Windows. It's been doing that for awhile, and I'm finally making a bug report about it now. Actually, I made two. Sorry about that.
