Title: RMB + LMB = middle mouse button?
Post by: cheb on July 03, 2010, 01:02:06 PM
I have this non-fatal but pretty annoying bug when OA treats Left mouse button (fire) + Right mouse button (jump) when pressed simultaneously to be the middle mouse button (zoom). It acts up not always but when it does it always results in a botched rocket jump  :(
The cure is simple enough: go to settings, repeat assigning the middle mouse button as zoom. After that, everything works perfectly... until the next time I start OA. >:(
I also remember there were (rare) cases when just pressing the middle mouse button mid-game cured the problem.

The bug affects OA from v.0.81(AFAIR) to v.0.85.
OpenSUSE 11.1 (KDE 3.5)
My mouse has a wheel (aka the middle button).

This seems like an issue with X. You might need to add:
Code:
Option		"Emulate3Buttons"	"false"
to your xorg.conf file mouse section.

The default is to emulate the middle mouse button until X has registered a middle click. Pressing the middle button BEFORE launching the game might help with that.

I use my middle mouse button which is also the mouse wheel for my "gesture".
