 The ACSUtils cursor library allows mods to easily add mouse cursor support. The ACSUtils cursor library allows mods to easily add mouse cursor support.
 +
 +It fully supports wide screens and takes into account all mouse settings of the user to provide consistent cursor support regardless of aiming settings.
 +
 +<note important>Do not use the cursor library in serverside scripts. It isn't supported for a number of reasons:
 +  - serverside cursors are very laggy.
 +  - cursor library can't read user's mouse settings to adjust cursor speed and direction.
 +  - cursor library can't read user's aspect ratio to find correct screen boundaries.

 +==== Cursor wraparound ====
  
 +[[functions:EnableCursorWrap]], [[functions:EnableCursorWrapX]], [[functions:EnableCursorWrapY]] can enable or disable cursor wrapping. If cursor wrapping is enabled, then reaching the edge of the screen will move the cursor to the opposite edge. This sudden teleportation will not affect [[functions:CursorDeltaX]] and [[functions:CursorDeltaY]] readings.
