Hi all,
I know the problems of using the Galaxy and System maps in VR comes up often. I've been searching and reading tips and what not for a couple days now but still finding myself feeling things aren't quite the way I want them to be.
Two main issues for me:
1) When I play, I keep the mouse right next to me. I would prefer to use the mouse to navigate around the maps in VR as it is much easier than the controller. However, if I do this I run into two main problems. First the game tries to randomly select things based on, it appears, my headlook which is annoying. And secondly, mainly, even once I use the mouse to get the target circle on my target system, the game doesn't select it. Instead I have to get there with the mouse, THEN, grab the controller and jiggle the target circle using those inputs before the game will select the system. This is super annoying.
2) More of an annoyance than a major problem, but even if I did set everything up to use the controller it appears I would still need the mouse because I can find no way to move between the "selected system" menu input and the left hand pane input in using the controller. If I select a system, the focus is on that panel and I can use my UI Left/Right and Select buttons as expected. If I want to move over to the Left hand pane where all the options and what not are, I can do that with the buttons to move umm.. forget the right term but the sub menu? left. The same button you would press to move within the sections of say the Target panel. But once I move over to the left panel, I can't get back to the system panel without the mouse.
