Requirements

============

SirNukes Mod Support APIs mod (https://www.nexusmods.com/x4foundations/mods/503)

Kuertee's UI Extensions mod (https://www.nexusmods.com/x4foundations/mods/552)

- Unzip to 'X4 Foundations/extensions/kuertee_ui_reset_mouse/'.

Summary: Load the save; Deactivate from the menu; Save the game (This is the "deactivated mod" save.); Exit the game; Load the "deactivate mod" save; Save the game (This is the "clean" save).

1. Load a game that contains the running mod.

2. Move away from nearby stations where station data is no longer shown in the Information panel.

3. Deactivate the mod from the Settings > Extensions menu. This safely removes objects (missions, npcs, etc.) the scripts created and then safely cancels the scripts. Its Extension Options, if one exists, should be blank.

4. Save the game. This is the "deactivated mod" save. This still contains the deactivated scripts and zeroed data because the mod still "exists" in the game environment. They are simply deactivated and zeroed.

5. Exit the game.

6. Load the "deactivated mod" save. The game will identify then remove the invalid scripts and data because the mod doesn't "exist" in the game environment anymore.

7. Save the game. This is the "clean" save. This doesn't contain the mod's scripts and data anymore.

Troubleshooting

===============

1. Allow the game to log events to a text file by adding "-debug all -logfile debug.log" to its launch parameters.

2. If an Extension Options entry exists for the mod, enable the mod-specific Debug Log.

3. Play for long enough for the mod to log its events. Or force the error that you are experiencing.

4. Send the log found in My Documents\Egosoft\X4\(your player-specific number)\debug.log to my e-mail (kuertee@gmail.com) with the mod name in the subject line.

🤖 AI-enhanced — based on mod data

UI Reset mouse is a utility mod that automatically repositions the mouse cursor to the center of the screen when auto-pilot disengages or a menu closes, and restores it to the previous position when a menu opens. It also hides the mouse when using a game controller and shows it again on mouse movement. With 314 endorsements and over 10,000 downloads, it's a popular quality-of-life tool for players who use both mouse and controller.

✨ Key Features

Moves mouse cursor to center when auto-pilot disengages
Moves mouse cursor to center when a menu closes
Restores mouse to previous position when a menu opens
Hides mouse cursor when game controller is used
Shows mouse cursor when mouse is moved after controller use

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Community-approved with 314 endorsements and over 10k downloads
  • Solves a real annoyance for hybrid mouse/controller players
  • Simple, focused utility that does one thing well

⚠️ Cons

  • May conflict with other UI mods that manage cursor behavior
  • Could be unnecessary for players who stick to one input method
  • Limited to cursor positioning—no other UI tweaks included
🎯 Is This For You?
For players who switch between mouse and game controller and hate when the cursor sits in the wrong spot. Also great for those using auto-pilot features that leave the cursor off-center. Skip if you never use a controller or don't mind manually moving the mouse.
📦 Install:Easy· Under 1 minute

💡 Beginner Tips

  • If you use a mod manager, install this like any other mod; it's a simple file drop.
  • Test with your most-used menu to ensure the cursor returns to the right spot.
  • If you have other UI mods, install this one last to avoid overwriting cursor settings.
