Vivero/Kerbal-VR

Find cause of failed recover (after loss of tracking in a dark room)

Opened this issue · 0 comments

Scenario :

  • Run an KSP VR session with this mod (for example in IVA in a pod)
  • Make sure that when you lean your body forward, your head also moves forward in the Virtual space
  • Turn off the light of the room in real life. => In the dark, the VR can still keep track of your head turning (orientation change) but loses track of you lean forward and backward (translations) because it relies on front webcams. That's normal.
  • Turn the light back on
    Expected : The translations tracking start working again
    Observed (issue) : The head translations tracking never recovers. In other words : Your head is a fixed position in space forever. The rotations of the head work, but if you lean the camera doesn't move.
    Troubleshooting :
    - Disabling and re-enabling VR in KSP doesn't help. The only fix I've found so far is to restart the game.

Question:

Is that caused by the mod or by OpenVR? Maybe the mod could resync more things from OpenVR when it gets re-enabled?
