Moving mouse while shooting causes mouse to go offscreen with multiple monitors on linux.
My setup:
Fedora 43 workstation
amd gpu
using ge-proton version 10-26 with steam
2 monitors
Game on the left monitor, another monitor on right.
tested with Fullscreen and windowed fullscreen
steps to reproduce:
Go to a game as hunter
Start turning (moving the mouse) towards another monitor (in my case it’s right) for 5 seconds. I believe the mouse is hidden but still moving.
Tap left click (shoot button) while still moving the mouse towards another monitor (right).
Alternatively you can spam left click while turning it towards another monitor
Mouse will “escape” the game and move to the other monitor.

I was able to find a fix for myself. I used gamescope (
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Gamescope
) and added launch options
gamescope -f -w 2560 -h 1440 -W 2560 -H 1440 --force-grab-cursor -- %command%on steam. Mouse is now locked to the game.
