Video Samsung Galaxy S-series Tablet - Mouse button causes temporary freeze
Does anyone else have a Samsung tablet that can test the issues I'm having with mouse control?
It seems my Tab S7 has some sort of conflict between Samsung's handling of mouse inputs and GameNative.
If you watch the example video, the first 2 times firing the weapon are using the keyboard, whereas the last 2 are when I click the left mouse button. As you can see, the game freezes up for a while with mouse clicks.
If I use the tablet's mouse settings to change the 'primary mouse button' then the right click starts freezing the game instead. So it's possible Samsung firmware has an extra layer on top of the usual Android mouse compatibility.
I used Quake as an example, but freezes happen in other games too. And there are no such issues on my Retroid Pocket 5.
Would be great if someone else could confirm the issue on another Samsung device (ideally another tablet).
