Mouse Locking not Working

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I’m attempting to lock the mouse to the center of the screen. For some unknown reason, setting the .MouseBehavior of the player’s UserInputService seems to be over-ridden somehow. Code:

--note: this code executes after ample loading time is provided for the player
local UIS = game:GetService('UserInputService')
local RunService = game:GetService('RunService')
RunService:BindToRenderStep('mouseLock',100000,function()
	print(UIS.MouseBehavior)
	UIS.MouseBehavior = Enum.MouseBehavior.LockCenter
	print(UIS.MouseBehavior)
end)

The output alternates between ‘Enum.MouseBehavior.Default’ and ‘Enum.MouseBehavior.LockCenter’. This leads me to believe that UserInputService’s .MouseBehavior is being changed, but something is over-riding the property back to ‘Enum.MouseBehavior.Default’. Any insight OR better practice methods is appreciated!

Simple solution that i can think of, is lock the player in first person

Locking the players .CameraMode to be Enum.CameraMode.LockFirstPerson works! Thanks. I also found that setting the .CameraType to Enum.CameraType.Scriptable also works.
