Cannot control mouse as of 1.03 patch

[Mugwump]

I had an intermittent bug prior to 1.03 wherein I found that the mouse cursor would sometimes not respond to inputs and would constantly snap back to the centre of the screen. I suspect it was due to having a HOTAS system plugged in. I found that using ALT-TAB to exit and re-enter the game would solve the problem. As of the latest patch, I find that the mouse cursor now experiences this re-centering bug 100% of the time and ALT-TAB no longer functions as a work around.

Could you please fix this? I don't relish the idea of having to crawl around under my desk to unplud and re-insert 3 USB devices every time I wish to play this game.

Have you tried to play the game in Windowed mode?

To set the game for windowed mode please click on Play Game button whilst the same time holding down the ALT or Ctrl key.
A Windows box containing the game graphic options will popup behind the game launch screen. Tick the option Windowed.

Where is the 1.03 patch to download?

I tried windowed mode as well as changing the resolution settings but the bug still persists.

I came up with a temporary work around. I pressed ALT while selecting PLAY GAME and then went to the input panel and reassigned the joystick axes to my throttle. As long as I don't move the throttle during gameplay, I'm able to move the mouse during the game.

Perhaps you could allow for the option of re-mapping the joystick axes to keyboard inputs (or disabling them altogether) and that should might the problem.
