Hi all!
I'm currently working on creating an OS-style interface with seperate draggable windows.
Currently I have this implemented using an Area2D for the top bar and a sprite for the general window, however the window is struggling to keep up with quicker mouse movements.
Is there any way to make this responsive or just a better way to implement this in general? Thanks!
#Creating smooth draggable windows

Relevant code snippet:
Offset is to make the drag move to the top bar because otherwise it moves to the center of the window.
mouse_hover is just a boolean check if the mouse is on the top bar.
if Input.is_action_pressed("left_click") and mouse_hover:
global_position = floor(get_global_mouse_position() + Vector2(0, 44)) # Offset to center on top bar
func _on_mouse_entered() -> void:
mouse_hover = true
func _on_mouse_exited() -> void:
mouse_hover = false
Scene setup (Vbox container is for the contents of the window so less relevant with this issue)

Fixed this by adapting from checking whether the mouse is within the Area2D to instead registering if the mouse is still clicked.
Stumbled into the following tutorial and adapted for my use case and Godot 4:
