    3.1. Locked mouse

    Info

    Locking the mouse cursor is often used in first-person or third-person games for a smooth experience.

    This prevents the mouse cursor from leaving the game window and allows the game to capture mouse movement directly for controlling the camera or player character.

    3.2. Hovering mouse

    Info

    handling mouse hover events is a common requirement for user interface (UI) elements. This functionality allows you to detect when the mouse cursor is over a specific widget or object.

    Limitations

    Warning

    Issue:

    Mouse stopping at the edges of the viewport (ie. hitting both sides of the screen and stopping camera rotation instead of rotating 360 degrees and completing a full circle rotation)

    Fix:

    change the Mouse Control Scheme from ‘'Hovering mouse’' to ‘'Locked Mouse’' to get the full camera rotation while streaming your application.
