[Help] Loading Screen - Mouse movement not detected

nta · 2021-10-13T21:18:00.346Z

Why not just enable the native cursor in the loading screen?

I already did that. Adding this info as a edit to the main post.
I added that to the fxmanifest.lua file and the cursor is visible, but still no mouse move events triggered.

This does work but intervenes with my framework disabling the mouse on my character selection page

You could do this:
create a file cursor.js

window.onload = function() 
{
  document.body.addEventListener("mousemove", function(event)
  {
        var cursor = document.getElementById("cursor");

        //TODO: More consistent way of aligning the cursor without awkward offsets?
        var x = event.pageX - cursor.width + 7;
        var y = event.pageY - 7;

        cursor.style.left = x;
        cursor.style.top = y;
  });
}

Download a cursor Icon somewhere

Open the __resource.lua file and add 'cursor.png' and 'cursor.js' to the files {} section

then in your index.html add the code below before the end of the body tag
remember to change the location of the cursor.png and cursor.js in the code below to match the location of these files. This goes for the resource.lua as well.

<img id="cursor" src="files/cursor.png"/>
<style>
  #cursor {
  width: 35px;
  height: 35px;
  position: fixed;
  z-index: 10000;
          }
  </style>
  <script src="files/cursor.js"></script>

The only issue with this is that, the click function for the mouse does not work… If someone could help out with this, it would solve our problem.

I have also tried adding a custom cursor before, but it didnt work because it depended on the mousemove with was not being detected.

Ze_Miguel_Coutinho · 2021-10-14T01:54:28.868Z

I have found the issue and it was plain stupidity and lack of focus.

The cursor DOES WORK always, being hidden, shown using loadscreen_cursor 'yes', or using a custom cursor.
I was missing this file definition on my fxmanifest.lua:

...
file 'assets/music.mp3'
file 'assets/images/sound-on.png'
file 'assets/images/sound-off.png'
file 'main.js'    <--------- was missing this line
file 'style.css'
file 'index.html'
...

After this, as expected, the event handlers loaded properly and mouse events such as mousemove and click started being responded to

Can you provide any repro steps for that?

for what ?

nta · 2021-10-15T06:50:48.161Z

Exactly for what you said in the post I replied to:

intervenes with my framework disabling the mouse on my character selection page

P4R4 · 2021-10-18T21:03:43.413Z

nta:

with my framework disabling the mouse on my character selection page

The only thing I did was activate loadscreen_cursor in the fxmanifest and I could not see my cursor on my framework character selection screen…

I finally got a developer to fix the issue, I don’t know what he did though but, now it works. I think he made javascript to mimick mouse movementsand clicks

nta · 2021-10-19T06:07:03.234Z

How is that in any way a set of reproduction steps so we can actually fix a platform issue, if any?

P4R4 · 2021-10-21T16:55:51.316Z

That’s all I did lol don’t know what else to tell you If I remove it I get my mouse back buy the nat2k15 framework and try for yourself I can’t shit a story when I don’t have one

P4R4 · 2021-10-23T19:22:40.796Z

in addition to my response, I don’t know why you are so keen on fixing this issue when there are more pressing issues to fix like onesync instability and random crashes.

nta · 2021-10-23T19:56:12.646Z

Have you even tried to report ‘onesync instability and random crashes’? There haven’t been any reports of either recently, so I can’t be ‘keen’ on fixing any issues you or anyone else have not reported at all.

However, here, you’re reporting some odd issue here that’s clearly a regression but then being entirely weird when I ask for a repro i.e. going ‘buy this random script and try for yourself’ when you very much already have reproduction steps you’re just refusing to give, and then asking ‘why are you trying to fix an issue that is reported vs. issues that aren’t reported’: I’m very uncertain about what your goal is here or why you’re being extremely hostile.

P4R4 · 2021-10-24T17:30:40.715Z

why did you delete my post ?

nta · 2021-10-25T07:32:37.563Z

Huh? There is no post in this topic that has been deleted.

Why did you not answer any of the questions posed?

P4R4 · 2021-10-28T08:40:16.898Z

I did

nta · 2021-10-28T09:10:46.442Z

If so, where did you?

P4R4 · 2021-10-28T18:25:41.030Z

in this channel when i posted it said your message was held for moderation but I’m not retyping it

nta · 2021-10-29T10:59:04.081Z

Channel? No message here was deleted at all.

Again, I don’t know why you’re being unwilling to help by providing information or code at all, all you’ve provided so far is inherent hostility and other weird blaming behavior.
