[NEEDS INPUT] World Select Icons Fly Away When Pressing Side Mouse Buttons

[ Edited ]
★★★ Novice

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.46.18.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Seasons, Cats & Dogs, City Living, Get Together, Get to Work, Jungle Adventure, Parenthood, Vampires, Dine Out, Spa Day, Outdoor Retreat, My First Pet Stuff, Laundry Day Stuff, Toddler Stuff, Fitness Stuff, Bowling Night Stuff, Vintage Glamour Stuff, Backyard Stuff, Kids Room Stuff, Romantic Garden Stuff, Movie Hangout Stuff, Spooky Stuff, Cool Kitchen Stuff, Perfect Patio Stuff, Luxury Party Stuff
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? 1. Load any game 2. Go to World Select 3. Hover over any icon and spam one of the side mouse buttons
What happens when the bug occurs? The world icon that was highlighted will start moving up-leftward with each click of the side mouse buttons.
What do you expect to see? The world icon stays in its original location.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No

The region to click to select the world will remain static, meaning the bug is only visual. However, resizing the window will shrink the click region.

I can get this to duplicate but only with my middle mouse button.

Do you do this often ? I going to mark this as needs input cause I can't see this having any high priority. I mean, just don't do it ?

It may be a minor bug, but it's still a bug. Besides, it shouldn't be that hard to fix; just block all mouse buttons other than left click on the World Select screen. Although, it would still be preferred to figure out the underlying cause of the bug and fix that instead. It might be related to the icon bouncing as if being clicked, even though it doesn't select the world.

I agree with you that it's a bug but I'd rather have them fix many of the more severe ones first.
