cursor shaking?

[decircumcised homestar runner]

sometimes on a track my cursor will just randomly start shaking violently up and down for seemingly no reason. it keeps throwing off my combos and it would sound very funny if it weren't frustrating. doesn't happen on menus or anywhere else outside of rhythm gameplay

btw this wasn't an issue at all for most of the first day I played the game but now it happens on basically every track I try to play

I had this - I took my screen out of fullscreen and into windowed and it helped?

A few people have mentioned this... seems like a rare bug. I've googled some solutions and will try them out, although it will be difficult for me to test for this since it doesn't happen on the systems we test with...

I had the same problems. Tried changing every variable I could (different mouse, PC display settings, uninstall/reinstall) found this thread and tried windows and downgraded display to 1600 x 900 (From 1920 x 1008) for the game, and finally found success. Hopefully this comment can help others.

A fix for this is coming tonight! It's tied to framerate.

Nerd details: I had some code that "smoothed" the cursor motion, and it was multiplied by time.deltatime. This caused the jittering if the framerate dropped!

tysm!!

No problem!

The "shaking" fix has one small side effect: the cursor moves with a different smoothness based on user framerate. We will add a "mouse smoothing" setting to the settings menu soon, so users can configure this as they like. For the moment though I'll lock this thread since the bug is resolved! 🙏
