Not enough playspace
When i started the game, it asked me to move towards a light on the floor, this then transition to the menu where you are behind the desk. This is where the problem starts, this position is right at the edge of my playspace. When i start a surgery i am stuck at the edge of my playspace (2m x 2m) and i cant reach some of the stuff on the tables. I can see there is a lot of wasted space on the other side of Bob.

Is there a way to move around/telelport in this game. I would like to move the defualt position to the center of my playspace but cannot see this as an option.

Any help / feedback would be appreciated.

Not sure if you're playing on the Oculus or Vive, but with the oculus you can enter the Oculus's own settings and select "Reset View in App" then move to better position. I would assume there's a similar function with the Vive.

Same here!
A VR reset button should be standard for all devs to put in a game!!.. .
Please Devs, make this happen!

Yes this is possible on CV1, but it's more fiddly.
And not as good as having a reset button, which is much easier to fine tune if you have a restricted play space.

One other thing I've noticed.
Can you please raise the hospital bed, or give the option to raise it?..
My back is hurting after just 15-20 minutes in the game, the patients are at my knee level!!

I've noticed this too (2.6 x 1.7 meters.) There's no mention of a minimum required area. I'm right against the wall and cant reach some things.

This is in the heart operation. As you can see, the syringes are on the other side of the chaperone. Only the end of the tray is poking through, so I have to grab it and pull it over.

And I agree, it would be great if we could raise the bed.

I have the minimum play space, stand right against the wall and IIRC I could everything I needed and the only things, that really were a problem, were where I have a shelf in the play space.

I now have the same problem! This was fine a week ago, they broke something!!

I have limited space. And now, walking in to the blue light to start the game, I'm on the very edge of my play space, right next to my TV. Of course... There's no way I can play this until they fix it now!

Please!! Add a 'reset VR view' button at the very start, or something! Just so that we get to choose where we start in our play area!

Do the devs even read the discussions for this game?! :/

EDIT:
Allow us to use the track pad to walk around before walking in to the light? Has to be a really simple fix, right? Just changing the X and Y values of the already tracked headset. Allowing us to choose a starting position.

Same thing here: I have to stand right at the back of my playspace (Step into the light, Doctor). Therefore I don't have any room to move backwards and I am leaving controller area, so that I also cannot get some of the tools...
Reset View would be real good.

DITO :/

Please give the option to raise the hospital bed. Give the option to raise it !

For all other games height is correct.
Here as a surgeon I am not 1.95 m but 2.15 m.
Cross pain after 10 minutes OP : /
