Click doesn't work :(

Hey all,

I've got a laptop which is a Lenovo Yoga 500 with touch screen.

Soma opens fine, the issue is I cannot click anything. With a mouse, touch pad or the touch screen. The game functions with Tab, F keys work. Just cannot click to move or attack. Is there a fix for this please?

Many Thanks
Sam

Edit: A client patch has been released that adds a message box for DirectInput error. Let me know what the error is if there is one.

Weird issue probably something to do with having multiple pointer devices due to the touch screen.

The game uses DirectInput for mouse inputs (it should use Windows events but not going to be able to change that anytime soon) it used to also use it for keyboard but it uses Windows events instead (this is better and explains why keyboard input still works). I also checked what happens if it fails to initialise DirectInput for the mouse and it will silently fail. I will get the client modified so it shows a message box with the failure reason then can go from there.
