Description

I'm not sure if it's a Linux only issue but if you use a border, the border flickers. Otherwise this seems to work really well. It's kinda funny to see the items lag behind the cursor

Oh right also, Terraria has this weird bug on Linux where the cursor doesn't map right to the window depending on your resolution and the shape of the window when maximised. The only way to fix this is to play in fullscreen or to arrange your panels to be setup like a Windows machine. This sadly affects the mod since the game still uses it's internal cursor handling for things like buttons and stuff. I'm not really sure if it's possible to fix, just thought I'd mention it :>

Research direction

Start by reproducing the border flicker and cursor misalignment in Terraria on Linux, testing different resolutions, maximized window layouts, and fullscreen mode. Done means the border remains stable and the mod's cursor aligns correctly with the game window, or the affected limitation is documented.
