Summary: Dungeon Keeper 2: possessing creature can only make 360 degree turn Product: Wine Version: 1.1.44 Platform: x86 URL: http://digiex.net/downloads/download-center-2-0/games- downloads/159-dungeon-keeper-2-full-version-1-7-a.html OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: olerass@gmail.com
In Dungeon Keeper 2 one can possess a creature with the Possession spell. In doing so one can control the creature with the mouse and arrow keys. Normally one should be able to turn as much as one wants but in current git (1.1.44) the rotation stops after having turned 360 degrees at max. It seems like there's an invisible rotation border at a specific point. How much you can rotate depends on the angle from this invisible border your possession begins (in what direction the creature is turning when you make a possession).
I have a feeling this is related to the other mouse issues in the game - like the invisible boxes you will hit in the lower right corner, until you move the mouse to the opposite corner and they disappear. It's almost as if the game doesn't "know" it's in possession mode, and if you then imagine the cursor in the game moving from one side of the screen to the other, then at some point it will hit the corner and you can't move it anymore. It seems like this is what is happening in the background even when you are in possession mode (where the of course is no cursor).
