How to disable mouse cursor in entire project

CProrammer

So I know how to hide my mouse cursor but It's still possible to use it in game. I would like to disable it in entire project and use only keyboard input, is that possible to change?

Out of curiosity, why do you want to disable mouse input entirely? Being able to click through menus is useful for accessibility purposes, as some menus are best browsed using a mouse instead of just the keyboard.

Yeah, probably not a good idea.

Game use only keyboard for input and doesn't need a mouse, also inventory use only keyboard input, a lot of games are like that so I am shocked that's is weird for you and there is no solution in the internet.

You can just hide the mouse cursor, if you aren't making use of the mouse just remove the mappings for mouse buttons from input map. That's it. No other game handles it differently.

@Calinou and @cybereality are just confused because your question makes it sound like you want to actually disable the mouse altogether, i.e. if alt tabbing out of the game with the game still running the mouse wouldn't work for rest of the system either.

I actually interpreted it as OP wanting to disallow mouse input to be used for clicking buttons and the like. To be fair, I see no practical reason for intentionally removing such a feature. Old games used to struggle with supporting mouse input in menus, and now people want to intentionally remove mouse input in menus? :)

Right, and there are people that only have use of one arm, or use medical devices to control a mouse and cannot use a keyboard.

I'm guessing to emulate old games.

Yeah, this would be my personal main concern with this.
