White dot still trapped/locked on cockpit blue click zones


ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue:

Instead being disabed in settings, WHITE DOT IN FREELOOK is still being trapped and locked in cockpit blue click zones, preventing any gamepad buttons keybind input. Litteraly, freelook trapped on click zones blocks the buttons keybinds - for example if my freelook highlight the blue click zones it disable any buttons and function until I leave the clock zone. The more functional/complex the cockpit the more trap zones are locking my freelok and gamepad keybinds.

BTW disabling white dot in msfs2020 disables the click zones as well.

FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

Every flight

Do you have the same issue if you follow the OP’s steps to reproduce it?
• Yes, to replicate, look around while playing on an XBOX (white dot on or off).

Provide extra information to complete the original description of the issue:
• I’ve reported this issue elsewhere and of course concur. There is an option in the Flight Interface tab which does not work with xbox. It’s not clear what it does but the choices are “Lock” and “Legacy”, Lock being default. My guess is that Legacy would give the behavior we desire but unfortunately, the moment you exit Options, the selection returns to “Lock”.

If relevant, provide additional screenshots/video:

yep I tried all of this, still trapping on clickzones, let’s hope they will correct it in future :smirking_face:

I think this wish might need to be renamed “Please Add ‘Legacy’ Flight Interface Option for XBOX”.

Currently (and I believe it to be a bug) the Lock/Legacy switch in Options/Flight Interface is flip-able, but returns to “Lock” as soon as the user leaves the screen. According to PC users, “Legacy” prevents freelook from trapping “blue zones”.

Getting rid of the white dot in setting doesn’t actually work… in cockpit view the camera is still picking up on all the controls like the white dot is still there but it’s not… this makes gameplay very difficult as it blocks your inputs from the controller… and sometimes there is a conyrol selected right in the home cockpit view looking straight forward on some aircraft which makes it even more of a problem… please please fix this please

Side note… flying my f16 is impossible… return to home cockpit view picks up controls from the cockpit and so does just about everywhere else you look… I had to look way up to the right in the sky to get controller inputs to work :face_with_symbols_on_mouth::face_with_symbols_on_mouth::face_with_symbols_on_mouth::face_with_symbols_on_mouth:

Yep it is impossible to fly anything more than glider in msfs24 on xbox :smirking_face: Unless you like to look up all the time avoiding any glance on cockpit

I don’t understand how this post and my post don’t have a thousand votes… it’s such a huge problem!
