Optionally Make pilot body disappear when you mouse over it

Recommended Posts

I love having a pilot body in my aircraft but it can get in the way of important switches and buttons, depending on the aircraft. I know I can bind "Show Pilot Body" but I feel as an option it would be convenient for the body to hide when I overlay my mouse on it and then unhide when I mouse away. This could be a setting in the options menu.

You can use shift+p to temporarily remove it without going into the options menu, but I know this can be tough in VR. I like wolf’s idea though!

I´ve thought maybe a good solution would be to make it work like the flashlight, make the body transparent in an area around the mouspointer like the lightcircle of the flashlight.

 

 

Now this is a pretty brilliant and sophisticated way of handling it. Hopefully someone at ED thinks so as well.

Don’t turn on the pilot body. Problem solved. That’s the whole problem with trying to show this, it hides the cockpit from you.
