Newcomer / Intro My yellow dot has disappeared!

[Touchwood]

Help! I've just upgraded to a Thrustmaster HOTAS from mouse and keyboard, and the small yellow dot that shows ship's heading has disappeared - I've tried all sorts but I can't find how to get it back. Can anyone help, please?

Do you mean the one in the middle of the screen? That moves when you move your mouse?

IIRC that's in the settings as "mouse widget" or something like that, and may have disabled itself when it swapped to the hotas preset.

Thanks, that seems likely, I'll have a look.

Could be you've accidentally hit the key you have bound to 'headlook'
When you hit this key, the yellow central cursor disappears and the mouse 'moves your head' around
If this is the case, just re-hit the key to get your cursor back....
