Question

I am attempting to make a mini application that shakes your mouse by adding and subtracting from it’s position randomly. My question is, how do i make a mouse_warp() function that works properly whilst focused on any window? right now, once i click off of the root scene, my mouse goes to a corner and stays there.

code for reference:

    var CurrentLevel = 5.0
	var TemporaryScreenOrigin = Vector2i(0,0) - get_tree().get_root().position
	var TemporaryMousePosition = DisplayServer.mouse_get_position()
	get_tree().get_root().warp_mouse(TemporaryScreenOrigin + TemporaryMousePosition + Vector2i(randi_range(-CurrentLevel,CurrentLevel),randi_range(-CurrentLevel,CurrentLevel)))

Have you looked at getting/setting the Viewport or Window and using warp_mouse() on that?

calling a warp_mouse() on a viewport only works whilst you are focused on that viewport’s window, focusing on any other tab will still cause the issue.

Maybe you can use get_window().grab_focus() before you need to use warp.

edit: nevermind, i checked for myself and this works, thank you !!
