Cursor.lockState = CursorLockMode.Locked; [SOLVED]

I have a pause menu, and when the esc button is pressed the paused menu shows, and when esc is pressed again it disappears. So when it shows the cursor shows and is also unlocked. and when it goes back to the game the cursor is invisible and is meant to be locked. But The cursor keeps going onto my left and right screens (Unity on middle screen). This is the code

Code (CSharp):

1.  void PauseGame(bool state)
2.     {
3.         if(state)
4.         {
5.             Time.timeScale = 0.0f;
6.             camMouseLook.enabled = false;
7.             smgController.enabled = false;
8.             Cursor.visible = true;
9.             Cursor.lockState = CursorLockMode.None;
10.         }
11.         else
12.         {
13.             Time.timeScale = 1.0f;
14.             camMouseLook.enabled = true;
15.             smgController.enabled = true;
16.             Cursor.visible = false;
17.             Cursor.lockState = CursorLockMode.Locked;
18.             Debug.Log("Cursor locked");
19.         }
20.         pauseMenu.SetActive(state);
21.     }

The debug for cursor locked is showing in the log, so that part is running. Its just not locking. Does anyone possibly have an idea why. Appreciate any help

 

For anyone having the same issue, the locked cursor state works when the game is built. Only seems to be an issue when playing the game in unity itself

 

I think it's a fool proofing in case you forget to unlock it in your code.
The other option is killing unity with task manager and losing all unsaved changes

 

That's not solved at all then.
I've just upgraded my own project to 2018.1 and now I can't playtest it in the editor because the cursor escapes. Why has this changed in 2018.1 and what is the workaround?
It seems unlikely to be a safety precaution because a) it was safe before, unlocking the cursor when the game crashed and b) it now prevents ALL mouse-driven games being tested properly.

 

For me my cursor freezes at the center of the screen in editor mode, however it works properly when I build my game. Not sure what Unity changed but I can't imagine it's really intended.
#if UNITY_EDITOR seems to be the solution for now, though I'm not really happy with it.

 

(Using Unity 2018.2.0b9)
Keen to hear a good solution for this. It's pretty annoying.
It worked fine in past versions of Unity, so I don't understand why it should be implemented differently now for any reason.

If I'm using the Editor, and I click back in the game window, I want the cursor to be properly Locked there.
Currently, the cursor sways out onto other screens, thus breaking out of the game when left and right clicking "in-game".

What do you mean by "#if UNITY_EDITOR seems to be the solution for now" ...?

What is it that you are doing with that?

Code (CSharp):

1. #if UNITY_EDITOR
2.         Cursor.lockState = CursorLockMode.None;
3.         Cursor.visible = true;
4. #else
5.         Cursor.lockState = CursorLockMode.None;
6.         Cursor.lockState = CursorLockMode.Confined;
7.         Cursor.visible = true;
8. #endif

 

I put this in the Start() function of a script, and it worked how I wanted it to, in Editor mode, and in the Standalone build on Windows. So I'm happy for now! Thanks @Leniaal ...

Code (CSharp):

1. #if UNITY_EDITOR
2. Cursor.lockState = CursorLockMode.None;
3. Cursor.visible = true;
4. #endif
5.  
6. #if UNITY_STANDALONE
7. Cursor.lockState = CursorLockMode.Locked;
8. Cursor.visible = false;
9. #endif

 

Code (CSharp):

1. void Start()
2.     {
3.         #if UNITY_EDITOR
4.                 Cursor.lockState = CursorLockMode.None;
5.                 Cursor.visible = true;
6.         #else
7.                 Cursor.lockState = CursorLockMode.None;
8.                 Cursor.lockState = CursorLockMode.Confined;
9.                 Cursor.visible = true;
10.         #endif

No errors but doesnt do a thing in the editor for me.

 

Code (CSharp):

1. void Start()
2.     {
3.       Cursor.lockState = CursorLockMode.Locked; // Defaults cursor invisible
4.     }
5. void Update()
6.    {
7.      Cursor.visible = true; // Defaults, if press left mouse, cursor reset to center (❤ ω ❤)
8.    }
