How does your Magic Mouse setup in BTT look like?

I think I might have found a potential regression bug. Could you check whether 4.865 fixes the issue for you? (uploading now)

Ah sorry, forgot to upload those screenshots. Added now.

On it, will check. The issue has been intermittent for a couple of days so it will take a day or so to confirm it has stopped reoccurring.

With the update it seems as if, after the delay, the tap now occurs where the pointer is currently rather than where the pointer was at the moment of the tap. This isn't a problem if the delay wasn't so noticeable. This is difficult to capture in a video demonstration.
I don't see a place to adjust this delay in the magic mouse tap settings, unless if someone can direct me to it?

I can't really reproduce this, but maybe I'm just too slow.
Are you moving your mouse really fast? :-D.

But then again that would also explain the first issue. I'll revert it back to the previous version that clicks at the triggering logic, but add some code to move it back to the moved location - that should happen so fast that it won't be visible

Done in v4.866, would be great if you could check with that one! (uploading now, available in 10 min)
