Joystick control in "main menu"

[joevenzon]

The reason that this happens when you pause the game is that the mouse pointer is "warped" to the middle of the screen whenever gameplay is going on. This ensures that mouse movement controls will work properly. Actually now that I think about it, I'm not 100% sure we need this anymore. Joe, what do you think?

If I understand you correctly, then yes, this is still needed (mouse controls won't work otherwise). I think the simplest solution is just to put the cursor in the corner of the screen when you go into the menu mode (i.e. out of gameplay mode).
