Hello all,
We’re having the same issue here when moving (dragging with the mouse) a lever or a 3-position switch in a cockpit when in the Developer Mode. And we are having the issue not only with our own projects but also with the default aircraft such as the DA62.
Two examples:
-
Pushing (left mouse button + drag Y direction) the throttle lever forward with the mouse from any position first moves the lever backward for a moment, then the lever follows the mouse forward.
-
Moving a 3-position switch from its middle position to its up position first moves the switch to its down position for a moment, then moves the switch up to mid, then to up.
No issue when moving the lever backward (down position in the case of the switch).
=====
At first, we thought it was our own code for 3-position switches that we are developing for our cockpit, but we also noticed the same issue with the default aircraft. This can be reproduced in the DA62 (try the throttles or the de-icing OFF-NORM-HIGH switch on the left side of the pilot’s panel).
We tested our own aircraft under development on two different gaming systems. With the same MSFS config on both platforms, and with the same aircraft (same cockpit, same code), and same mouse, we do not have this issue on one computer, but we are having the issue on the second. Both are high-end Dell Alienware machines fully up-to date using the same Logitech mouse.
We do not have the issue when exiting the Developer Mode. Turning the Developer Mode on again causes the issue to reappear.
The only difference between our two test systems:
Laptop: SDK version 0.22.3.0 = NO MOUSE ISSUE
Desktop: SDK version 0.23.1.0 (latest) = MOUSE ISSUE PRESENT
We may be wrong, but we believe the issue is related to the more recent SDK version(s).
Hope this helps.
