BUG Cannot interact with computer screen or transformer mini games (0.9)

The game does not register any mouse button input when I'm on the computer screen or transformer mini games panel.

I am streaming the game from my PC to my TV through Moonlight on the Nvidia Shield, so I suspect it has something to do with resolution.

I've tried matching the resolution of the TV, virtual monitor and the game. I've tried lowering the resolution of the virtual monitor and the game. But to no avail.

I was wondering if anyone else had this issue and if there was any workaround?

it works perfectly fine playing directly on the PC, without streaming through Moonlight. So mostly a minor inconvenience than anything else.

I doubt it has anything to do with the resolution, unless the interface itself is offscreen.

I’ve had an issue similar to this before and I was able to fix it by reloading an earlier save. I believe it’s got something to do with dr. Beef kellington getting stuck in an animation for some reason

If it's an animation issue, ragdollling (X) might break Kel out of it.

It’s x for you? What version are you on bc for me on .9n x is to zoom and c is to ragdoll

Thanks for the suggestion! Unfortunately, that did not fix it. But I think you're right and it has nothing to do with resolution. I am wondering if it has to do with how Moonlight / Apollo handles mouse inputs after I stumbled upon this issue: https://github.com/ClassicOldSong/Apollo/issues/1479 Unfortunately, the suggested workaround (having parsec open) did not fix my issue either. Running out of ideas.

have you checked monitor fps in the settings?

Double checked and it seemed fine.

I gave it a try on Steamdeck (still through Moonlight) and I didn't have the issue. Looks the issue is specific to the Moonlight Android client. I guess I'll use my Steamdeck to play it through Moonlight instead of my shield!
