Oops. I didn't really read this before. A cursor in 1st person would
be a real problem to implement, and it's why we have the control scheme
we have now. But I agree: it is absolutely necessary. What I had
originally suggested for 1st person was to have a key you press to
toggle the mouse between look and cursor, but some people didn't like
that either.
And now I'm remember why I decided not to add special support for the 1P
viewpoint. It's a total pain and requires adding a special case to all
our input/control code.
Perhaps it would be enough that when the HUD has focus (that is, a
window is active) the mouse appear automatically.
I dunno. This is complicated.
