I just clicked on Alfalfa in the menu and it went over some 1 day crops that didnt need replacing - (see picture) I am using the 5x5 combine harvest plow and sow. Also the pointer selects things I havent clicked on - for example I am trying to scroll down in the seeds menu and it keeps selecting a seed. Or in the Facs Manager scrolling down inside a facility to select a particular item I suddenly find I have started something I didnt want to. I hope this makes sense. Its driving me totally nuts. There doesnt seem to be a problem with my mouse using other functions on my computer.
Thinking about it what seems to be happening is the pointer/clicker is reacting faster than the display is refreshing (which isnt slow by any means) - my mouse doesnt seem to have become super sensitive so I have no idea what the problem is.
Hi Maggie,
If you are using a wireless mouse try changing the battery. When the battery becomes weak then strange things start happening with it. It is more noticable in the game because their are more places for it to react.

You are welcome. Unfortunately all these games are hard on mice, specially that left button. I can't tell you how many mice I have replaced over the years because the left button wore out.
