How to use the ATC and Map

Ive managed to crash the game, trying to get he ATC and map window in vr.
Could you please do an in-depth how to so I can get these windows up, been waiting for these.

Ive crashed the game three times, trying to resize and move the windows. I've popped back in to the flyinside menu system,
used the desktop screen large mode to open the windows,
pressed the pop out button (top right on the ATC and map windows) and tried to move and resize them. this has critically crashed the game. (moving with mouse as I cannot grab the windows when in vr)

I'm just after a way to consistently get the windows in VR and move them so they are not directly in front of the nice view down the runway.

using touch. all oculus and drivers are well up-to date.

PS Great work guys keep it up.

Hi prbirdo,

Greyman did a very nice short explanation how to do it:

Thanks that does get the windows consistently in Vr However just to confirm it is not possible to grab and move or resize the windows using oculus touch, It possible to interact with the ATC and map commands.

Yeah, that might be a bug. I also can't use my Vive Wands to move the windows so right now we have to stick to the blue dot control but I think Dan will have a fix for this out soon.

Probably depending upon the size and shape of the cockpit of the aircraft you are flying, the ATC window can pop up in a bit of an awkward position, where you can't get at it to move it, but you can usually get round that by moving your position, (arrow keys, "," and ".") until you can get your mouse pointer onto the move button on the VR window.

That's how i did it at least.
