Wish list or suggestion: Configurable VR mode for in cockpit only, and display mode when in mission editor.

I love DCS. Great work!
Respectfully, I wish DCS World would allow a configuration check box to allow you to use the headset only when actually in the aircraft and automatically switch you back to display when in mission editor or mission planning. It's a drag to have to switch back and forth by restarting the application. I prefer mission editor work in the display rather than wearing the headset.

Jepp. Would be great to have this option.

Agreed

Yes, please take a cue from MS Flight Sim 2020 which nailed the VR swapping. You can bind a button (in FS2020 it's "F9") and you swap between VR mode and desktop mode.

 

Adding to the slickness of that setup, you have two distinct graphics modes: desktop and VR. I know DCS World added saveable presets, this takes it up a notch. When in desktop mode the game auto reconfigures to your saved desktop preset, and hitting F9 swaps to VR and reconfigures to your saved default VR preset. No restarts needed, you can go back and forth at any time - including while in flight, seamlessly.

 

This is high on my DCS wishlist.
