[1.31 BUG] Interaction menu should appear on the target (not on the mouse cursor) when triggered with a button

Post by Havner »

When flying with joystick/HOTAS without a mouse with Gamepad mode turned off when you do an interaction menu (default F) on the target it appears under mouse cursor. I don't use mouse while flying at all. The cursor can be in a very random place for me and the interaction menu appears in the place I expect it the least.

And it actually works properly in Gamepad mode on. And this is the reason I'm kinda forced to use gamepad mode even though I prefer manual targeting. It should work the same with Gamepad mode off.

I agree with that OP. I even suggest to hide the mouse when flying using HOTAS, and just display it when moved for menus. Also, it should not interfere with steering at all (E.g. that happen when closing the map). I tested lot of combination (I have now more than 4 hours just trying to fine tune my T16000 HOTAS configuration) and still don't really found how to deal with this mouse cursor during flying...

Thanks.

It’s one of the really annoying bugs that prevent me from trully beong happy while flying with HOTAS. I have to think about my mouse and cursor sometimes where I shouldn’t have to.

I’ve reported all of the ones I found. Till now none have been fixed.

I wish someone in egosoft would play this game for 20h with HOTAS being forbidden to touch the mouse when flying. This way they’d nail all of this easily.
