set_mouse_speed(3)

✨ set_mouse_speed ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the Allegro manual 💖 this one's a lil function called set_mouse_speed from the Allegro game programming library, and yes it does exactly what it says on the tin 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

set_mouse_speed</p> — sets the mouse speed, bestie. that's it. that's the whole job. it lives in the Allegro game programming library 🦋

💅 SYNOPSIS 💅

#include <allegro.h>

void set_mouse_speed(int xspeed, int yspeed);

no cap, that's the whole signature. two ints, zero drama 🫶

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so set_mouse_speed sets the mouse speed, obviously 💁‍♀️ but here's the part that lowkey trips everyone up:

larger values of xspeed and yspeed represent slower mouse movement 👑

yes bestie, it's inverted. the bigger the number, the slower the cursor goes. it's giving "backwards" but it's literally just how it works, fr fr 😭

the default for both is 2 ⭐ so if you don't touch anything, that's the vibe you're getting.

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

• install_mouse(3) — you kinda need a mouse installed first, bestie 🐭
• set_mouse_range(3) — for when you wanna cage that cursor 🎀
• position_mouse(3) — for yeeting it to an exact spot 📍

and that's the page!! mwah 💋</purl> this was pulled straight from the Allegro manual, version 4.4.3 🌈 go forth and adjust your mouse speed responsibly, bestie, ily 🫶💜
