Jester Wheel Selection

Currently the Jester Menu selection using a line with a circle at the end starts at top of the wheel when opened as opposed to the one in the F-14 which is at the center. Is there a way to change that in Phantom to also start at the center? Right now, if I want to select something on the bottom of the wheel, I really have to lower my head (headtracking in VR) way more than I need to to make the selection and lose my focus from the HUD or cockpit. If the starting point is at the center, then I need to lower my head only slightly. The F-14 implementation in that regard is effortless. Hopefully this can be accomplished via a user setting somewhere in a LUA file rather than a change in the code.

Thanks!

It depends on your selection in the Special Options. Its called the Headtracking Origin and you can select between two types: Center and Dynamic.

If you picked Center, you can shift the Center point to your natural head center (important for VR) by using the offset options next to it. Details of how it works in our manual:

Thank you so much for commenting. Using the Dynamic, as opposed to the default Center, gave me what I wanted and made the selection to behave as it is currently implemented in the F-14. Perhaps this should be set as default. At any case, problem solved in the best manner. No code or script change required. Appreciate it.
