Caveats
  • The stall is a full second of real time, measured on the clock rather than in game frames, and nothing at all runs during it — no logic, no input, no network traffic.
  • The mouse is locked out without the scenario's own lock being set, so anything that restores input from that lock releases it again, including the zoom-out action and closing the options screen.
  • A band selection under way is abandoned, and the view is redrawn and presented before the stall rather than after it.
  • The cursor hiding is counted. Two firings in a row leave the cursor hidden after a single zoom out has restored the view.
