Mouse sensitivity is so weird

[Countdown]

I can't seem to get it right. I have a high DPI mouse, but even cranked it turns too slow, but if I turn up my DPI too high then the cursor goes crazy when I am doing interactions or in the menu. It's really annoying.

One thing to consider is that you have to first click the Close button on the options panel before clicking Resume; otherwise your slider settings for mouse sens (especially if also using the high dpi mouse option) can get ignored and seem like the slider does nothing.

Otherwise though this has seemingly been a bit problematic and could use an update.

same here, but fixed it somehow by setting it in the main menu ,while setting it in game didn't do much .
Also , i have to do that every time i start playing ...

I’ve run into this issue a lot, and I’ve found a solution!

Note: The Slow Turning bug can happen when you A) Start a new shift, B) Grab a gurney, or C) Randomly after cutscenes/events.

To fix the slow turning while walking around , do the following:

1) Press ESC to open the menu.
2) Open the Options tab.
3) Toggle "High DPI Mouse" to OFF
4) Slightly adjust the "Look Sensitivity" Bar.
5) *IMPORTANT*, Click "CLOSE" at the bottom of the options menu BEFORE returning to the game.
6) If this doesn't work repeat the process.

------

This glitch might happen again when using the Gurney .

To fix that, do the following:

1) Grab the gurney by pressing E (only works between the preparation and movement of corpses)
2) Press ESC to open the menu.
3) Open the Options tab.
4) Toggle "High DPI Mouse" to ON
4) Slightly adjust the "Look Sensitivity" Bar.
5) *IMPORTANT*, Click "CLOSE" at the bottom of the options menu BEFORE returning to the game.
6) Release the Gurney by pressing E.
7) Grab the Gurney with E again, and it SHOULD be turning properly.
--------------

these issues might start again when you load the game back up, or start a new shift, but just follow these steps and it SHOULD run normally for the rest of the shift.

crap I feel you dude. I've been sitting here for 30 minutes trying to figure it out and shooting myself in the foot for not playing the demo before purchasing this as it would have been a deal breaker. I haven't even made it out of the first room of the mortuary because it bugs me so much.
-edit-

I updated things on the main menu screen and hit "close" and it appears to work fine but when I go into the game it's still pretty bad. When in game my character will t-bag the air when standing still lol. Also at the very center of the screen the curser will seemingly just spazz out but does not really do that with broader movements? I have a glorious model D mouse. I've messed with a ton of settings the past hour, it seems to do better at my lower dpi default settings but its still really bad and I can't figure it out. It's pretty well unplayable right now. I've got a covid brain going on at the moment so maybe I'm just dumb and it's something simple.

Yeah, to apply the sensitivity change you need to click CLOSE button on the pause menu. If you press esc the sensitivity setting won't change.

I did hit the "close" but it was still weird that night. It must have been an issue on my computer's end though because i uninstalled/reinstalled and restarted computer and I haven't had any issues thus far.

Hey, I posted my discussion elsewhere regarding that issue, but just incase, here it is.

I was able to fix the sensitivity for looking around but not while holding a gurney, it's gonna seriously hurt my wrist if I have to keep doing this. There's no high dpi mouse option in my options, maybe they've since removed that? Very frustrating if that was the fix though.
