Ark with 2 monitors
So, i have 2 monitors. My main monitor is right in front of me and the other monitor is to my right.
The problem is when i attack something and spamclicking my mousebutton and move to the right while i do this, my mouse goes to my right monitor. This happens in windowed mode and in fullscreen.

Anyone else got this problem and maybe a solution?

I have a program called "Swap Screen" which i use to lock the mouse to a specific monitor, but even this doesnt help.

I use two monitors and it works fine for me O.o hehe - are you by any chance on a Skype call as well? That actually caused that problem for me.

I have two monitors and never had an issue with this. Sometimes the mouse jumps off to windows but then it's just a matter of clicking in the Ark window.

I play only in windowed mode.

This happens normally only if you have another program / game open which uses the Fullscreen(Windowed) or the Windowed option.
Do you have another game open?

Hmm, well with skype when you click on the monitor without ARK - a little preview windows pops up on the ARK game, usually when i close that it doesnt happen anymore. Some other windowed program may be doing that also.

You can also try to swapping your second monitor to the left side via properties and see if that fixes it.

I Have 3 monitors 1 on each side of the main monitor. and it never jumps over to the other screens.( but i have had this problem inn other games earlier)
i am playing in windowmode
I have it on extended display. This way the Taskbar is only showing on the main screen. maybe you have it on both?
Its maybe not much help but its something. :P

I have the taskbars on all my monitors - my main monitor is the one ARK runs on and I play in Fullscreen Windowed mode.
