Works for me. Which OS? Anything else out of the ordinary?

Win 7 64-bit.

I'll try again later in the day, when I have some time, but I'm pretty sure this was not an illusion, it was very obvious in my machine. Maybe it depends on OS, resolution, etc.

OK, finally I got some time to test this. I installed ADOM r52 in a different computer (which had never had an ADOM install before), with Win 7 64-bit, and could reproduce the bug.

But I think if you couldn't reproduce it, it probably was because my report was missing an important piece of information: it only happens in full-screen mode.

When the game is windowed, the cursor takes the form of a gauntlet, and it works fine, i.e. the character goes to wherever you point with the gauntlet's index finger.

However, when using Alt+Enter to enter full-screen mode (which is how I always play, that's why I took it for granted), the cursor takes the form of a blinking rectangle highlighting a map square (which is fine) but it's bugged as described: the PC often doesn't move to the highlighted square but to a contiguous one.

Can confirm we still have it in the current release candidate. Works as described by Al-Khwarizmi:
(tested on my Win 8.1 x64 )

Alt+Enter part is important, just maximizing the window doesn't produce the effect.

Fixed by now. Just tested with the latest R53 candidate.

I'm afraid this still happens in the Steam r53, although it seems to happen somewhat less often than in the previous release.

But I still sometimes click on a square (in ASCII and fullscreen), and the character moves to the square directly north or west of it.

Also, sometimes I click on the square directly east from my character, and I get the menu as if I clicked on the character.

This is on Win 7 64-bit, full-screen, ASCII.

Does the problem persist for you in R55?

Yes, I'm afraid it still happens. I just launched r55 and reproduced it in the wilderness in like the 5th or 6th square I clicked.

I'm also facing a new (?) problem with the behavior of the mouse cursor in NotEye ASCII full screen on Macs: Most of the time the cursor is a block cursor but sometimes it switches to the gauntlet cursor. Whenever the gauntlet cursor is displayed I cannot click the underlying tile (and thus don't move). Happens both with remote tiles and tiles in line of sight.

The original problem should be fixed (luaL_checkint seems to work differently on Windows? no longer using it). Could not reproduce the Mac problem.

Closing this as I haven't anything about it anymore.

Yes, I can confirm I haven't seen this problem in the last versions.
