- Oh sweet, it runs first try every time now
- ...okay the cursor is super jank unless I lock it to the window
- ...oh fuck my mouse's side buttons aren't working correctly
- They're mapped to the numpad, and it's still recognising that much...sorta...except that it's handling it as though Num Lock is off, so I can't use anything on my alt hotbar except the one button that's mapped to ' because I ran out of other keys
- Update: oh fuck it's not handling my actual numpad correctly either, so I can't use that bar at all
Turns out, the problem was trying to use Wayland. As much as I'd like to go all-in on it, support is still a bit lacking. I've switched to the other "unofficial" build (unofficial in quotes because it "may as well be official") based on the Staging branch of Wine, and not only are the above problems not present, but I have hope that it still starts up every time, and also the Compose key works, which is something I've been missing from playing in Windows.
edit: I had turned off the XMODIFIERS tweak, which, while that allows the Compose key to work...causes other input issues so I had to turn that back on. ope. Regardless, a net gain.
