@SmotheryVase665

that link is most helpful. If this bug is still present in the release build of 2024

Bug is still present in FS 2024

[Tweak112]

Yup still the same in FS24

[ObjektHafen5513]

Same. Makes the Game unplayable. I wait with buying the game until its fixed

[GIEI]

@GIEI

The Core is the same so we should expect to find the same bugs

No more words

[Sky1732511]

Good to know. I planned on purchasing FS2024 but I guess I’ll wait. They promised a fix for this years ago, then they claimed they wouldn’t.

MSFS2020 looks good enough to stay with for a while.

[FLyerX5774]

I will try this setting as it uses the right click as ON/off of freeview since the bug is in the (hold) setting.

Unfortunatly the bug is still present despite the promise to fix it (planned for MSFS 24) despite the fact I reported this early on FS24 tech alpha..

[PILOTOWAWAWA]

At this point, its the least of their worries.

SIM INFORMATION

MSFS 2024

Version 1.1.7.0
MS Store

During flight, panning the view with the right mouse button blocks hardware control inputs such as yoke/rudder pedals. The controls then “snap” to their new position once the right click is let go (panning is completed).

This bug was reported numerous times in MSFS 2020 as well

Flight controls freeze when using right-click for panning view

This issue has been around for quite a long time and it bugs me a lot while I’m moving on the ground. Are you using Developer Mode or made changes in it? Negative. Have you disabled/removed all your mods and addons? Negative. Brief description of the issue: See title. The flight controls freeze in their position whenever you use freelook (so when panning view in cockpit or external view using right-mouse click. Using right mouse again unlocks the controls again.

Absolutely insane to release a new sim which still has half the bugs from the previous one… this one being especially infuriating

[hdgrp8521]

The right mouse button cannot be used in the in-cockpit view of MSFS 2024. (Everything is normal outside the cockpit.) I think this conflicts with the data in the cloud. The reason is that I uninstalled the XBOX (PC) program and re-downloaded it from the Microsoft store, but it still doesn’t work. Binding the MFD HEADING BUG INCREASE AND DECREASE to the numeric keys 8 and 9 will cause a conflict, while binding it to the “/” and “*” keys is all normal. (8 and 9 are bound to other functions in MSFS.) The above are all personal speculations.

[BillyBobJoe0987]

It seems like this works in external view but they still haven’t figured it out for cockpit view.

[FSC740]

Its unbelieveable…

Controls not working while looking around.
Since four years without getting fixed.
Carried on in the successor simulator.
For the next years again?

Interesting that those basics really hindering flying are not fixed while stuff gets introduced that makes it more a digital twin (Avatar dressroom and hair dressing sim).
To me it seems “flying” is not priority anymore.

See corresponding “deactivated controls” “controls freeze” in All controlls disabled while mouse hovers over undocked gauges/panels as well.

Wondering when this basics for all flight sims since decades get fixed.
