Relative mouse control
Greetings!

I've always loved flying in FAOFF, but I use KBM so relative mouse control is a must. This can be very annoying when in supercruise however (where I spend a lot of time), or when I just want to take a break.
Having to turn it off in the controls is just tiresome, and I think it would be a great idea to have an option to toggle it on-off with a keybind. Not to mention I bet it would be simple to introduce.
For the meantime, is there any way to work around this? I found an autohotkey script, but it can be very finnicky. Any suggestions would be great.

Fly safe, CMDRs

For flight assist? I'm talking about relative mouse control, resets the mouse positon over time

Why is it annoying in Supercruise? I don't get it...

Wouldn't it be enough to adjust the deadzone and relative rate a bit to your liking?

Because when you're in SC, you don't really need or want the mouse resetting every second, or else turning would require you to constantly move the mouse. If the rate was too slow, it would defeat the purpose of RMC

Here I come looking for an answer to the same problem three years later, yet there appears to be none. Fdev never fails to disappoint...
