ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue: Since SU5 Beta it is not possible anymore to klick some items inside the cockpit anymore. The mouse cursors remains inside the cockpit. Therefore it is not possible anymore to close open doors from inside. Additionally there are also elements inside the cockpit where the cursor does not attach to the control/switch anymore. As an example it is not possible anymore to reach the motorcycle-handle of the collective in the Asobo H125 to switch from idle to flight or vice versa.

FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

How often does this occur for you (Example: Just once, every time on sim load, intermittently)? everytime

REPRODUCTION STEPS

Please list clear steps you took in order to help our test team reproduce the same issue:

  1. Load the sim in a thirdparty aircraft like the A2A comanche or the blacksquare TBM

  2. Open the door from the outside and then sit in the cockpit

  3. Try to reach the door handle from inside

  4. Load the Asobo H125

  5. Try to click the Idle/Flight on the collective

MEDIA

Please add a screenshot or video of the issue occurring.

Did some more testing with different aircraft. In the Taog’s Hangar 500C all works as it should whereas others like the mentioned Comanche or the TBM850 or even the firstparty H125 do have their problems. That would lead to a situation where many many devs would have to update their work to get them to work properly in MSFS24…

Can others confirm my observation?

Can confirm the flight/idle on the collective in the h125 is not clickable, even with VR controllers.

Can confirm this issue with the Black Square Turbo Bonanza so assume problem with all the BSQ aircraft.

When in VR the twist throttle from Idle to Flight doesn’t work with the mouse. Also the mouse doesn’t click off some of the highlighted positions at the outside parts of the helicopter.

FlyByWire A320 is giving similar problems. I can click many items on the dashboard, but I can’t click on the computer keyboard.

Is this affecting any default aircraft?

H125, as mentioned here

Thank you! If there are any other aircraft let me know.

I dont’t know if there are other default aicraft affected. I’m quite shure there are. Unfortunately I had to opt out from the beta because of this new VR feature/bug.

Please let us know if there are any default aircraft affected so that our testing team know which aircraft to look at, as we aren’t able to test with 3rd party products.

Thanks folks!

I can add the DC3 to the list. It is very hard to reach certain controls in the cockpit when they are behind others and you need to reach around things or handles towards the floor. In general I have to say that the new way of interacting with control elements is not very mouse friendly and IMHO there was no need to change it. But I have to say also, that I do not play VR with VR-controllers but solely with a mouse, so might be a improvement for the controller-community…

TBM - try to close doors….. mission imposible

Just to make you all aware - the same thing is happening in VR with the TFDI MD-11 - lower portion of the controls are ok in VR but the main overhead panel is non resposive with the mouse pointer - rather annoying really !!

Thank you for the bug report.

We have created an internal ticket to see if our team already has this logged, and if not they will attempt to reproduce the issue and create a new bug report. This item is now marked as feedback-logged. If there is an existing bug report or one is created, we will move this thread to bug-logged.

On my latest flight in the A320neo (v2), some buttons on the dashboard also stopped working.

FlightFX P.180. Some control interactions are missing. The scroll icons are missing for scrollable knobs on the FMS.

tfdi md 11 has also a problem, you cant hide the efb, non vr no problem. just flight rj Professional, nothing is clickable in the cockpit

Bagolu´s Cessna/Reims Rocket all toggle switches (like e.g. Battery, Alternator, Avionics) not working in VR with Mouse. Would post it in Third Party Aircraft but I did see that other aircraft have similar Problems and it was working flawless before Beta. Could it be something with backwards compatibility (2020 Aircraft parts?)
