AH-64 Scratch pad no longer clickable with hand controller trigger

[ldwater]

Hey,

Figured this was a VR bug since its related to the VR hand controller.

I'm using Pimax Crystal and since the last hotfix patch the AH-64 scratch pad (the keyboard & a few other elements) is no longer clickable using the controller trigger button.

Normally (and with other airframes (ie, OH-58, CH-47)) I can hold the underside trigger to bring up the pointer, and press the top trigger to push a button.

For the AH-64 this is no longer possible on some cockpit elements and I have to use the thumb stick 'down' to 'click' a button.

It seems really inconsistent because I can do this normal (under trigger + top trigger) clicking for the MFD buttons, and some other cockpit objects, just not the scratch pad.  This change is really messing with my muscle memory

Also note that I've NOT changed my button mappings, and as it works on some objects I don't believe its a mapping issue.

What VR controller are you using?

Since the latest Steam VR update to hand skeleton implementation, I have found that DCS interprets TOUCHING the trigger as clicking, so if your controller has touch-sensitivity, you either have to turn that off for your DCS profile, or make sure that you don't TOUCH the trigger until you want a click.

I'm using the standard Pimax controllers.

Other airframes it works as it did before, but since the patch it seems to be just the AH-64 pad that doesn't work the same anymore
