When Steam Input mouse emulation is used to move the mouse cursor inside a game, the mouse cursor does not move. However, the game does react to where the mouse cursor should be based on the movement of the joystick.

Please let me know if you need any more details. Thank you.

Steam input is not supported in our images since it clashes with the isolation mechanism that we have in place to support multiple users, see https://github.com/games-on-whales/wolf/issues/81
