Title: Mouse-look mode doesn't work on overland map
Reproduction Rate: 100%
Blocker? no
Details: I don't know what to call it, so I'm calling it Mouse-look mode. It is the ability to move the camera by simply moving the mouse without having to hold down the right mouse button. In towns and adventure scenes you enable this mode by entering targeting mode by toggling the Tab key.

The only option I have found to navigate on the Overworld map is to hold the right mouse button while moving the mouse. It should be possible to move the camera by simply moving the mouse on the overland map as it is in towns and adventure scenes.

EDIT: The Player Guide does not explain the difference in navigation in towns/scenes vs. overland map. The instructions of how to navigate do not work on the overland map as described.

Steps to Reproduce:
User Specs:
OS: Windows 10 (10.0.0) 64bit
CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40GHz (8) System RAM: 16324
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GT 640 GPU RAM: 3020

Area: Novia
Loc: (136.7, 21.0, 305.1)

 

Thank you for the suggestion. We'll look into adding this to the player guide.

 

Again, mouselook used to work on the overland map and then suddenly stopped when the reticle targeting was implemented. I think it was just an oversight, but I can never get a dev to check. Please bring back mouse-look on the overland - not just updating the player guide to the new (broken imo) way.
