ISSUE DESCRIPTION
Description of the issue:
The “Drone focus mode” on the “Showcase” tab of the camera panel (aka drone cam) does not act like advertised by its available settings besides “Disabled”.
- “Auto” does nothing in comparison to "Disabled.
- “Manual” does what “Auto” should do with the amount of blur being set by “Drone focus” (so it keeps in focus what’s within the screens center only). You cannot keep something in focus wich is off-center this way and as such draws the manual setting useless.
Also the displayed setting always reverts to “Disabled” whenever the camera panel was closed and reopened.
Did you experience this issue before you joined the Beta?
No/not tested.
[PC Only] Did you remove all your community mods/add-ons? If yes, are you still experiencing the issue?
No (nothing installed what alters camera settings)
FREQUENCY OF ISSUE
How often does this occur for you (Example: Just once, every time on sim load, intermittently)?
Always
REPRODUCTION STEPS
Please list clear steps you took in order to help our test team reproduce the same issue:
- Open the camera panel, select “Drone focus mode” = Auto. Set “Drone focus” and “Zoom level” to something high. Expectation: Moving the aircraft into the screens center will blur the surroundings, moving it off-center the aircraft will be blurred.
- Select “Drone focus mode” = Manual. Keep the other settings as is. Expectation: Moving the camera will keep the focus constant, so either the aircraft or the surroundings will be blurred depending on the settings. The focus will not switch if something is moved into the screens center.
- Close the camera panel and reopen it. The last setting (in this case “Manual”) should still be set.
