Description Dennis Felsing 2020-06-28 09:06:18 UTC 
Hi,

Using SDL 2.0.12 we have a bug report by multiple players in DDNet: https://github.com/ddnet/ddnet/issues/2369

The issue is that in the map editor (ctrl-shift-e) alt-tabbing to another window and then at some point back to the game sometimes messes up the inputs permanently. Mouse coordinates become something like -67108864 and keyboard inputs also don't register anymore. This seems to happen very sporadically, but after downgrading to SDL 2.0.8 it seems to have disappeared again.

Since I can't reproduce it myself, I can't debug deeper.

Best regards
Dennis
