This behavior is generating selection clicks when they’re not expected.

If I right click (And release) on a target, I select them and begin automatically attacking. That’s fine.

Here’s the bug, though:

  • Right click with a target under the mouse. Do not release.
  • Move the mouse to rotate the camera. The mouse cursor vanishes.
    • With the cursor gone, I expect to never perform a selection click.
  • Release the mouse with the cursor still over the original target.
    • This selects them, even though I moved the view enough to make the cursor vanish.

This hits me mostly when running through tunnels and making small adjustments to my view to see slightly better down them, and times like that. It’s very disruptive when I start attacking something I expected to quietly run past, or target an ally instead of the enemy I was going to launch my attack at. Given an unlucky camera spin it can even occur after rotating all the way around my character to face the other way (Depending on location of the target I accidentally clicked on)

Note: I believe this is a bug because if I click a target then move off them and release it doesn’t occur, and if I click then move over a target and release it doesn’t occur, but only if I click a target, move the view, then release still on them does it occur.
