[Beta 14] Camera jumps backwards during edge panning
« on: September 28, 2024, 03:00:42 AM »

When moving the camera through edge panning (which is always how i move it), sometimes the camera jumps to completely the wrong spot (in this case, backwards).
I don't know what causes it, though maybe it's related to my "eventual lag" issue?
edgePanningSpeed=20 in my options.cfg file.

High-quality cropped video attached,
low-quality uncropped video here :

I would've reported this on the related Steam topic,
but i don't know how to share high-quality videos there.

Not sure, I can't repeat anything like this so all I could suggest is:

1) there is some other combination of things in your configuration that lead to it (not super likely, but never can be sure)
2) as you mention maybe there is some type of build-up or previous behavior that's needed to reliably get that sort of result--though I haven't seen anything yet via testing, certainly if there were steps known to repeat it I could look for solutions
3) a hardware issue which is not uncommon with mouse devices and their various settings and that's harder if not impossible to address.

Yeah i have no idea how to reproduce it reliably, though if i can record it happening a few more times, maybe i'll find something in common between the cases?

I did notice when trying (and failing) to reproduce the bug that diagonal edge panning doesn't work the same on all corners (on my end, at least).
Specifically, moving my mouse to the the lower-right corner of my screen makes the camera move right only,
but placing it further left makes the camera move down-right correctly.
When using the non-modal UI, the point where it switches between "down-right" to "right" is somewhere below between the letters i bolded in "Adv. Component Analysis Suite" when one is in inventory.

I'll get back to you if i find enough occurrences to figure out anything more.

This is true and known, a side effect of cellwise vs pixel calculations and the fact that the cursor is technically snapped to corners of cells, so that will be staying as is.
