I think that the OP has posted another link with useful info about CNB RES etc.

Thank you

I had forgotten how good the view is from the Asp cockpit in VR. Think I might enjoy the trip, although still undecided where to go.

Yup.... I did an exploration run to the neutron fields recently in my Asp using the Vive.

Absolutely freakin' amazing view, combining the Asp cockpit and a HMD. WOW!

How do you control the galaxy map in VR? It simply doesn't work with a mouse and I haven't found a viable solution yet.

Halfway to Ceos in my CobraMKIIIto work on my Sirius faction rep for Qwant only to see a post that that faction has been ousted. Agh!

I have been playing from release and seem to be one of the few folk not to have been to Sothis/Ceos. Ah well I may stay for a bit and get some Fed Rank.

Maybe even see some folks and a box ticked.

EDIT: Just arrived. Sirius Corporation are here and awaiting to be influenced. Nice.

I was lazy last night and just flew over and parked up at Sothis. I realized I was too beat to cycle the boards and then do runs back. That will happen tonight since I think I have more energy.

The Gal map controls pretty much suck in 3D. The mouse it totally worthless. I've mapped all of the control bindings to a hat and wheel (for zoom) on my hotas' throttle stick. It took some getting used to, and is nowhere near as fast and efficient as using a mouse in a 2-D environment.

The galaxy map is all but worthless with VR. I dread having to go into the map to find anything with my headset on. They definitely need to put some time into reworking the map function. On a good note, it looks beautiful with the headset on. Surrounded by stars! Ohhh... Awww...

That they do. Binding navigation keys to the hotas helps. Using that to navigate to the search box, and typing a name is easier than trying to look / select with the hotas, then scroll to station, then select plot route etc.

Have also tried using the mousepad and normal screen while peeking down the gap between the vive and my nose.

There was also a menu control option to set what panels appear when you look left, right, crotch etc, and part of those has an option to have a mouse pointer in the HMD as well, separate to the on screen one, but that is slightly out of sync with the real one the last time I tried, and just as difficult to control.

TL, DR The Gal map controls pretty much suck in 3D.

Well jeez, thanks guys! I was expecting some nugget of wisdom that I'd been doing the galaxy map all wrong, but turns out it is just... broken lol.

Its the reason I wear VR only when bounty hunting as plotting routes is nigh on impossible
