I have a custom set of icons for my game. I have the hotspot for each cursor exactly where I want it (the middle of the foot for walk, the tip of the finger for grab, the middle of the eye for look, etc, etc). However, I dislike that the hotspot is a little teeny teeny dot. Is there a way to change the size or image of the hotspot in the icons? Maybe something like a X or a + or maybe a star or something? If not, its no big deal, but I am just curious.
Thanks.
But since the hotspot can only be over one thing at once it has to be a single pixel. Maybe you should put a blob as part of your cursor if you want something else.

No, because then it would be ambiguous what you actually clicked on: if two objects/characters/room hotspots were adjacent, and your cursor was partially over both of them, which of them are you clicking on?

I read that post. I don't want the entire cursor to be the hotspot, or even the entire image. I just wanted something visible so the player would know where to center the cursor.
I never thought to do what SSH said. That would be a really good thing to do. Thanks for the suggestion.
