Hello,

In the most recent patch notes there is a line for:

 

3D models enhancements in progress:

  • Improved pilot model.

 

But does that include the default seating position of the pilot? Because when you look down, it becomes apparent that the default F1 viewpoint is too much forward, and when looking behind you the pilot's shoulders clip through the ejection seat.
The former issue can be fixed by editing the default camera position (with the included Camera Cockpit keybinds), but the latter requires ED intervention.
For now I put the new default F1 view in-between the current default position, and where it would be if I align my head with the in-game pilot's head, but what can we expect in the (near) future? Are the upcoming improvements to the pilot model going to address both of these issues?

Thanks!

As stated in my signature, I fly in VR using a Varjo Aero. The default pilot position unpaused can be seen in this screenshot. The shoulder strap clips through the ejection seat.
I specified "unpaused" earlier, because when paused (for example using the ESC menu), the pilot model flips into place again becoming unclipped. This is immediately obvious when looking over your shoulder in VR and pressing ESC a few times.
