Cockpits were clickable, now they're not, what have I done?

Rather frustrating.

Naz,independent mode is the setting you want for f10

I'm not following you mate. F10 is already set to Toggle independent mode. I have never changed or adjusted that setting in the controls menu.

When I hit F10 in game previously, it would toggle between modes where either the mouse pointer was visible or not. If the pointer was visible, I could click and activate levers in the cockpit. All was working as intended.

However, for some reason now, when I use F10 to toggle into that same mode, the mouse pointer still appears, the mouse pointer still changes into the little hand indicating that I should be able to operate a particular lever, but now, nothing happens when I click.

If I am missing something else please let me know, but i think you might be misunderstanding me perhaps. I am aware of F10 and the independent mode, but for some reason the clickable cockpit part has broken (or I broke it somehow...god knows how though).

I have exactly problem as you. Don't know what's up.
I'm using X52 but no SST.

Bottom entry in the aircraft key menu ... "Mouse Control". I set that to left mouse click and all is working again.

Don't how know when, how or why I changed that but there you go...knew it had to be something stupid I did.

Anyway, for the other fellas who were having the same issue...hope that helps you too.

Thanks for all responses guys.

I'm with you up to setting the left mouse click. How do you do that?

Clarification

I double clicked to get the window in which I can assign a key, tap the left mouse button, but nothing happens.

I've run into the same problem. Keys and most controls on stick stop working. Even clicking the controls with the mouse stops working. For me, they come back slowly after several minutes of messing around with them, but they are not quite right. Then at some point the work intermitently. Full reboot seems to fix it for me.

Man, they have a lot of work to do.

Sorry for the delay Binky....I have not viewed this thread for ages so had no idea you had posted a question.

To be honest, I am not sure why remapping did not work for you. If you can get the window up in which you assign keys, it should allow you to map the mouse click...perhaps make sure the mouse pointer is actually in the box where you enter the key stroke and try again?
