MacOS Input Fixes Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I know the MacOS Input Fixes Mod is actually working?
Open your inventory and ctrl-click an item to move a single item at a time, or press ctrl+Q on a stack and check whether the whole stack drops. If those behave correctly and your trackpad no longer flings your hotbar selection, the mod is active.
Do I need to enable anything in a config file for the mod to work?
No setup is required — the fixes apply automatically once the mod is loaded. If something still misbehaves, check that no other input or keybind mod is overriding the same controls.
Why does ctrl+click still pick up a whole stack instead of one item?
This usually means another mod is intercepting the click, or the mod isn't loaded for that instance. Remove or reconfigure conflicting input mods and confirm the mod appears in your mod list.
How does the mod change trackpad scrolling?
It limits scroll input to when your fingers are actually on the trackpad and smooths out momentum scrolling, so a single flick doesn't scroll through your entire hotbar. Scrolling becomes consistent and controllable instead of accelerating wildly.
Why does shift+scroll not register when I try to move items in my inventory?
The mod makes scroll events count only while fingers are on the trackpad or on supported mice with the relevant APIs, which fixes the dropped shift+scroll inputs. If it still fails, make sure you're not lifting your fingers mid-scroll.
Ctrl+Q only drops one item on my Mac — how do I fix it?
With the mod installed, ctrl+Q should drop the full stack as intended on other platforms. If it still drops a single item, verify the mod is loaded and that no keybind mod has remapped ctrl+Q.
Does this mod fix ctrl+tab and ctrl+esc not being detected?
Yes, it corrects the input detection so those key combinations register properly on macOS. This matters for switching windows or tabs without the game swallowing the input.
Will this mod conflict with other keybind or input mods?
It can conflict with mods that also rewrite mouse or keyboard handling, since both may try to process the same events. If controls behave oddly, test with only this mod enabled to isolate the conflict.
Does the mod affect performance or cause lag?
No — it only adjusts how input events are detected and filtered, so it doesn't add meaningful overhead. Any lag you see is almost certainly from other mods or the base game.
Does it work with both trackpads and external mice?
Yes, it handles trackpad scrolling and also supports mice that expose the relevant APIs for scroll detection. The smart scrolling logic applies to whichever input device you're using.
