Unlock mouse from game window?

So I'm running 4 to 6 clients of Earth & Beyond and I simply want to know how to unlock the mouse from the game window so that I can just use the mouse to move from screen to screen. I have a few configuratios for my screen layout but for this one it's on one monitor wit 4 clients in the tiled layout. I've tried a few different things to try and make this function but nothing has fixed it. I saw an option on the character set screen that read..."Lock cursor inside game window while focused" I set that to no but that didn't do anything either.

So basically right now I have to use the keybinds for window swapping to switch windows which is ok but it would honestly just be easier for my particular needs with this game if I could just freely move the mouse around from client to client and select them that way. Is that possible to do?

This is the option you're looking for. All you should have to do is set that to no and Export to Inner Space. If the game is already running when you do this, you may need to restart the game windows. Please double-check (try now) that this option is set to No, you've Exported to Inner Space, and then launched the team and let me know for sure.

If the cursor is still locked to the game window, then I will have to see what I can find out as to why the option is not working correctly.

Re: Unlock mouse from game window?

Yes I've actually done that a few times across 5 teams, I have 5 teams set up for this particular game and it doesn't work for any of them, ranging from 2 member to 6 member team. Most recently I tried it last night as I was trying a new window layout and still not working.
