Post CC unplayable with mouse on Macbook.
As far as I can tell, the game doesn't recognize right click (trackpad 2 finger click, apple+click, or USB mouse right click) in either full screen or window mode.

Additionally, there's something wrong with resolution settings in window mode. My desktop is at 1200X800 and the 640X480 game resolution doesn't fit on the screen.

Turn off 2x window mode to make it fit on screen.

Or, if you actually want to fix anything, go to Cortex Command/Base.rte/Settings.ini and change the resolution to your screen resolution minus a few pixels on each side.
I dunno why but that's simply what you gotta do.

OR, if you wanna play in 2x pixels, set it to 598x398

Why did you ask for help if you were just going to dismiss any responses as too much work?

Why don't you try adjusting the resolution and window mode, and then see if that does anything with the mouse? You may have a window context error and Cortex Command simply isn't getting the proper mouse inputs.

Hold on, I can two-finger and control-click to get the wheel menu fine. The mouse, however, is totally ignored.
Is it a mouse that demands extra drivers, or is it a generic?

Why did you bother to respond when you failed to gather the actual problem from my question or understand my reply?

Per my original post, the mouse (USB or Trackpad) does not work in either full-screen or windowed mode.

What's the point in editing game files to make the window prettier when I can't play the game? Hence, "It seems like too much work when I can't play the game."

I mentioned the minor graphic annoyance as an afterthought to the catastrophic issue of no mouse support. I don't know why that's getting replies.

It does take extra drivers (Microsoft mouse on a mac, lol), and I have the most recent version. The mouse WORKS in the game; I can change the way the body is facing using the mouse and fire weapons with left click, but that's the end of what the mouse can do. I've never seen the right click menu, so I'm jealous the two-finger click works for you. What type of mac do you have?
