  Anyone know when this will be fixed? Started after recent upgrade.

  Thanks

  i have the same issue. straight after the last update.

  the advice given was to turn off shadowing, reinstall etc but to no affect.

  i am relieved its not just me, as i reset my entire  chromebook... and the chromebook back up.

  i am hoping they are working on a fix as the game is just unplayable. my vursor returns off screen but its in a random place.

  You might try a PM to Nico if you are able to, or a wall post, he is more likely to respond to those.  Or if you have Discord you could ask on the WGT Discord channel where you can find Nico and Champion (I've been told, I don't use it myself).

  EDIT:  Just a thought, is it a setting in your browser?  On some websites (e.g. when viewing videos) the cursor will disappear after a few seconds of mouse inactivity.

  Maybe ScottHope might have some workaround if it's a WGT problem.

  Thanks,

  It is a WGT problem. The second the site opens the cursor appears then disappears with every movement. I will try to contact Nico.

  I don't know about Chromebooks or laptops in general to be honest. But have you tried the good old turn it off and back on.

  If users of laptops just shut the lid when they are done, does that just send the thing to sleep? If so, maybe a proper shut down and reboot would resolve the issue.

  Could be you need a new mouse. But if you mean the aiming cursor, are you by any chance pressing "V" key?

  It does that using any browser? Have you tried different browsers?

  Thanks Scott,

  It’s only on the chromebooks. WGT has said they are looking into it.
