Hello!
Straight into the issue - when I run Terraria through Steam, the mouse controls are initially disabled in favor of the game controller controls. This is evident by no mouse cursor or mouse functionality being available, as well as the controller button/legend being present in the lower left-hand side of the Terraria main menu. I found this odd as at no point previously, in any other version of the game, did Terraria run without recognizing my mouse as a mouse. Is it perhaps recognizing my mouse as the game controller instead?
In an attempt to remedy the issue, I navigated to settings --> controls by way of the 'wasd' keys to navigate and the 'space bar' to select (as a second oddity, those keys were the only keys working for those specific functions). Once there, I was able to 'wasd' myself over to the keyboard controls option. I selected it with the 'space bar'. I then used 'wasd' to move down to 'mousebutton1' and then clicked the left mouse button. At that time, the mouse cursor suddenly became visible. It could be moved around the screen and the game controller legend in the lower left-hand corner disappeared. It was an improvement, however, neither mousebutton was able to select anything. Additionally, all 'wasd' and 'space bar' functionality was gone. In the end, when ever I attempt this, I can only ever get to this point as after the mouse cursor is activated, no button is able to select anything, leaving me stuck in this section of the settings.
What in the world might be happening with this? Has this happened with anyone else?
Thank you for any help in the future!
