pointer

Makes the game act as if the mouse rested at a place, without clicking, to show what appears only under the cursor (a path preview, a cost caption, a highlight). Pass one of target, point or pixel, or release: true to stop.

The game picks up the new place within about a fifteenth of a second: wait a quarter second, then cursor says what is under it and screenshot shows the rest. The real mouse is not moved or read, and the window need not be in front; the drawn cursor and the game’s menus and bars still follow the real mouse. While the hold lasts, a click acts on the held place, not under the real mouse. It ends after seconds or on release.

The answer includes the place pointed at (as screen gives places), how long it holds, and whether the game window is in the foreground.

Read-only: it changes nothing in the game.
