New Mouse
The fault appears to be more frequent if I'm not actually using the mouse. For instance when I'm using my tablet to draw things with. So for now I just unplug the mouse when I'm drawing, and plug it back in when I'm not.
If the good old days it was possible to do everything using the tab key. It doesn't seem to work that way anymore. Forms are the worst. But don't worry. I will order the new one tonight, and if the worst comes to the worst I can use the tablet. It's better than tab, though not much ;)

Cloud Cover
It's not generally done, but easy enough.
Add a CLOUD sheet above all but the TEXT sheets, and add a largish blur effect to it. Then either add circles of pale colours (not all white), and/or use the freehand drawing tool with a line width set above zero to scrawl on that sheet in similar off-white colours.
Here is the smoke from a chimney stack done using scribbles and a blur.

No sweat.
Most of what I just said is available in more easily digestible bit-size pieces in the help tool you can open from within FT3, so you can take your time to learn stuff.
Exporting smaller regions might help a bit, though I'm not sure if it will help as much as you want it to. Whatever resolution the export is set to is the one you will get, whether its a whole world, or just a small continent.
