This game (like the supreme commander engine it is built on) does not handle dual monitors well. Basically when I go to scroll, my mouse leaves the game window and goes onto the second monitor without scrolling. Anybody have a workaround for this other than disabling the second monitor every time I play?
I searched around google for others having this problem, but found no solutions. Than I found this thing:

Pretty easy to setup, the demigod executable is in some path like this:
program files/stardock games/demigod/bin/demigod.exe
enjoy, oh also stardock if you are listening please just add this obvious fix to the game, surely your developers are using dual monitors to program (I use 3 when I do)
There has been quite a bit of discussion on this and I'm pretty sure future versions would have proper cursor locking. Thanks for posting the link though.. I plan on checking it out. I wasn't impressed with other suggested resources such as WMC (Windows Mouse Capture).
The only thing it really effects is edge screen scrolling. I simply changed my playing tactic and rely on hitting 'T' (Character Tracking) to handle the camera more. When I need to move manually ASDW and QE to rotate. Also don't forget about holding down the spacebar to do free camera movement.
UPDATE: Cursor Lock works great! Thanks again.
=D
Oddly enough I never thought about it. I have my browser and chat client on monitor 2 and have DG *almost* maximized on monitor 1.
