On the top of my head i would think it would be easy to do, as i could just do


 if( event.motion.x <= 0)
 {
  SDL_WarpMouse(0,event.motion.y);
 }

But it turns out, whenever i leave the boundaries of the created window with the mouse, event.motion.x will always return 0. I have seen games doing this so i know it is possible.

Is SDL_WM_GrabInput what you're looking for?
