Wrapping mouse cursor?

[replicate]

I've searched high and low, and haven't been able to find anything relevant, so here goes: Could anyone tell me a simple way to make the mouse cursor wrap around the screen edges? ie. if you're moving your mouse all the way to the right and hit the screen edge, I want the cursor to jump back to the left side of the screen, and continue moving right until you quit moving in that direction. Vice versa in the other direction. Any help would be greatly appreciated, and thanks in advance.

I suppose you could use love.mouse.setPosition to move it to the opposite side when you reach the edge of the window.

This should do that

Code: Select all

function love.load()
	w = love.graphics.getWidth()
	h = love.graphics.getHeight()
	margin = 80 --This is a safe value, if you're running fullscreen, set this to something smaller. Like 5
end

function love.update(dt)
	local x, y = love.mouse.getPosition()
	local newX, newY = x, y
	if x < margin then
		newX = w - margin
	end
	if x > w - margin then
		newX = margin
	end
	if y < margin then
		newY = h - margin
	end
	if y > h - margin then
		newY = margin
	end
	if newX ~= x or newY ~= y then
		love.mouse.setGrab(true)
		love.mouse.setPosition(newX, newY)
		love.mouse.setGrab(false)
	end
end
