Empire Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 Hello, I have noticed for the fourth or so times, I see it more at night then day but it doesn't always appear and when it does I can't work it out. When flying Carenado phenom 300 series (only Carenad I have installed so far) it's all going good but the mouse has a white light effect, watch the clip https://www.twitch.tv/empirekicking/clip/BluePeppyMageCharlieBitMe if you look where my mouse arrow is to the left side of the aircraft/clip you can see the clyle light and it moves with the mouse arrow. Isn't that normal or not? is it a V5 thing or Carenado, I seems to not find a option to disable or if it's a bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 Hello, yes, I see that occasionally and in fact I quite like it. Unfortunately, it seems to have stopped working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, it seems to have stopped working. It tends to appear out of the blue LOL And when I see it I'm like huh? It is handy flying in the dark and you have to use knobs ( ) to adjust and it's hard to see it in the dark with cockpit being dark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigerclaw Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 This is the built in “torch” in P3Dv5. It is activated by the / key on your keyboard. It toggles between white/red/off. Its a a really cool feature of v5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 Thanks very much. It seems to share the key for airbrakes (spoilers), which is why I only saw it occasionally, I suppose. I have changed it to T for torch (flashlight) and it's really helpful (cool). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigerclaw Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 It was mentioned in the Features list, but I never knew how to use it. I think I read a post on the AVSIM forums about it over a week ago now. It just stuck in my head because I could’ve done with it once recently when it got dark before our final hop. I couldn’t find the fuel lever to change tanks. Wish I knew how to use it THAT day lol. I must admit, I haven’t put it too the test yet, I don’t do much night flying these days lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
