    I am playing on the Official /Vanilla/Default MP Server.
    Fine adjustment of targeting in an SV has become extremely frustrating.
    When trying to fine adjust a target, into the cross hairs of your mounted weapons, its as if the mouse has become sticky.
    Only small jerky movements are possible, when before A11 it was lovely and smooth.
    This is a high priority bug, for me, as this element of gameplay is no longer enjoyable.
    This problem is easy to reproduce by trying to adjust a target into your cross hairs while flying a small SV.

    Update: The above bug is also a problem with HVs.

    I have the same problem, and couldn't work around it with the settings in the options menu. The problem exists also with the drone and using the multitool when salvaging, and when taking manual control of a turret. It makes actually hitting small things on the ground almost impossible

    I've this problem too when i flying a SV and use the first person view. I've tested with different mouse sensitivities but i don't seem to get the smoothness as in older versions.

    Three people that I know of have now retired from the game because of this bug.
    Is there anything else I can do to help you crush this this bug?
    Any more information or testing I can help with?

    Is there a reliable way to reproduce this ?

    Can you show a small video of this issue & provide a save game of where it reproduces for you ?

    Hello, have the same Bug/Error. And to reproduce: Get a SV(with Weapons) fly arround and kill Zirax on the Ground. Than you will feel what we mean, i think. Are the Player/Communitiy of your Game all Tester´s for you? Sorry, most of us want really Help you to hunt Bugs. But sometimes it feel, that your Team dont testing Updates!

    Here is the video to demonstrate the problem.
    You really need to try it yourself to get a feel for the problem though, as its not a very easy thing to grasp from watching a video.
    It might seem like a trivial bug, but it has a huge effect on the quality and enjoyment of this type of gameplay.
    Hope you manage to fix it soon.

  11. Perfect example video! It captures the issue perfectly. Hopefully they listen.

    Also I would like to add that while floating in an SV for example and the player presses down arrow to micro pinpoint a target for some reason the first key arrow pressing translates to the opposite like if the up arrow was pressed and vessel nose points downwards for a brief moment. Furhter key pressing of the same down arrow translate to nose up properly Same happens while flying with 3rd person view. Mouse is idle with no hand on it at all.

    I'm also really struggling with this one. It makes combat a fairly miserable experience. Very frustrating

    I do not know if related or not but even character rotation is like watching stop-motion, linear movement is not perceptibly affected. It makes me a bit woozy.

    Is there a fine adjustment to targeting? If ao, how is it activated? I don't see any reference to it in "Controls" on the "Options" page.
