Re: Why do I get so few points(SDL_MOUSEMOTION) when I move fast

Or you can get the current position on the update and compare with the
previous to check if there is any difference.

    ///--- Store the current information to the previous
    m_iPreviousCoordX=m_iCurrentCoordX;
    m_iPreviousCoordY=m_iCurrentCoordY;
    m_uPreviousMouseState=m_uCurrentMouseState;

    ///--- Update the current state of the mouse
    m_uCurrentMouseState=SDL_GetMouseState(&m_iCurrentCoordX,
&m_iCurrentCoordY);
