It's definitely more than a few pixels. In the gui it's about half the button height, but in world coordinates, it looks like it's off by 1 Unity unit (about the size of one of the ship cubes). I plan to put some debugging code in and make a game object follow the mouse, printing out the coordinates so I can try and see what's going on.The 1 pixel thing is definitely strange. Is her machine at a different aspect ratio or DPI?
Yup, different aspect ratios. I'm running at 1280 x 1024, and she's a 1440 x 900. But I'm building an executable, and Unity asks for the resolution before I run it. I also need to test to see if it only happens when I run Fraps. They do some weird window hooking into. Next week, I'll post more details.
\o/ Yay! I'm helping!(And your updates always inspire me to update my journal and game link...I'll have to get on it)

I also do it because I think it will serve as a marketing investment (eventually). And it gives me some practice making videos and writing about my game.

Looking good. I still like how great your ship destruction looks. You could probably solve the bullet problem by moving them to another layer once it's determined they've missed. (Some ignore all collision layer, or at least all ships)
