    So when I use the bot I frequently let it run in the background and work on a chrome remote desktop which allows me to access my physical PC at my office. I do this running dual screens. When I do this it seems that the bot has a hard time functioning if I’m working on the same screen that FFXIV is on. If I work on the other screen it seems to work just fine. Is there a reason for this? Maybe a setting I need to adjust?

    Yes, this is a known issue which happens under extensive mouse movement, due to the fact that Miqobot does not use code injections.
    In order to prevent this behaviour, please switch your game to Windowed mode and minimize it.

    You can find detailed explanation of the problem in the Known Issues section:

    • An issue wherein Miqobot would fail to move a game cursor, under extensive mouse movement.
      Unfortunately, this can not be fixed without code injections, and we have no plans for implementing code injections.
      Miqobot is aware of this situation, and she will patiently wait for mouse to stop moving before making another attempt. She needs a small fraction of a second (about 0.25 sec) in order to recover from this issue. Under normal circumstances you wouldn’t even notice this behaviour.
      If you want to prevent this behaviour completely, please consider switching the game to Windowed mode and minimizing it, when you run Miqobot in the background. Thus, mouse cursor will not be able to run over the game’s window and will not interfere.
