Title: 'Lock cursor' no longer works in Unity 5
Post by: gheeDough on April 21, 2015, 07:06:20 AM

Hi all,

I just created a test scene with nothing but a plane, the standard 1st-person controller and an FSM to lock the cursor. This used to work, but maybe something something changed in Unity 5 that broke it. Has anyone else noticed this?

Edit: the cursor hides upon being clicked and the custom cursor appears as well as expected; however, it no longer locks.

Thanks Lane! That thread didn't show up in my 'lock cursor' search  ::)

While this does a good job of locking the cursor, it doesn't actually lock it in the centre of the window but in the top right. I can add positive values in the hot spot area (which position the custom cursor even further into the top-right corner), but negative values get rid of my custom cursor and replace it with an unlocked system mouse cursor.

Edit: sys specs: OS X 10.10.3, Unity 5.0.0, Playmaker 1.7.8.3. Downloading 5.0.1 to  see if it makes a difference.

You may way want to direct those sorts of issues at Unity, theres been a number of reported issues with the new API but I don't think anyone has really pursued bug reporting on it. Most people I've talked to that have issues with it just find a workaround and move on.

Also, it is not the same as the old way of locking the cursor. They scrapped the old one and replaced it with a new system so it is subject to behaving differently.

Cool, will do, thanks Lane.

Is there a workaround you could recommend?
