Description
After loading in if you try to hold drag middle mouse button (i.e. camera pan) it will treat it like a left click (and not pan the camera).
After game starts it works with no issues.
Repro steps:
- Start a game, try to middle click drag the camera.

Research direction
Start with the issue's repro steps and compare middle-button dragging before and after the game starts, using the attached videos as behavioral references. Trace the camera and mouse-input entry points involved in that transition; done means middle-button dragging pans the camera before the game starts instead of being treated as a left click.
