Hey guys, i’m trying to achieve a pretty simple camera system. If I press and hold the left mouse button I can move the camera, if I release it I can normally move the mouse cursor and interact with the world / HUD. However, the mouse is blocked at the edges of the screen which prevents further camera movement.
Is there a workaround for this?
"Dont think there is anyway in standard unreal at the moment but Rama have a node for it in his plugin.
The Set/Get Mouse Position nodes work directly with the player's viewport, and do not require access to the HUD canvas.
~ Set Mouse Position - SET the mouse position to any values of your choosing!
~ Get Mouse Position - Get the current mouse position, will be consistent with results of SET Mouse Position
~ Get Center Of Viewport - Obtain the coordinates of the center of the viewport! Works in PIE as well as standalone game instances

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Thanks for the information, but I’m not quite sure how I should use this nodes to solve my problem
I have the same problem, did you find a solution?
Basically i figured out that to do this, create a variable to see if the mouse is hidden or that you want to rotate infinitely. Then in event tick youll need to call SetMousePosition from the player controller reference to the center of the screen each tick, this will allow you to infinitely scroll regardless of the bounds of the viewport
