    This issue seems fixed now. I believe it's been fixed with the April "Freelancer" update, although it is not mentioned in the patch notes at all...

    Can anyone else confirm?

    For whatever reason, the selector/ mouse cursor is missing in first person view. First when I start the game, the middle circle in first person view is there. However, once I go to another lot and go back into first person view the selector is gone and Ill have to restart the game to get it back. Anyone else running into this problem since the last February patch?

    Hi @kenjibaby 

    i merged your post with bug report on this

    I can't test this as I get motion sick from FPV.

    Waiting for more input from others

    @crinrict, @pnpBrumi , & @kenjibaby , while I also get nauseous 🤒, I can handle the first person camera for a very short time. I tested it and  I get the same thing... cursor is present at home, but disappears on a community lot, and also does not return even when my Sim goes home! 🤔

    Edit to add that I don't use CC or Mods, so that isn't the problem!😉

    I also have this bug, the easiest for me to reproduce was to load a game, go in FPV then go to Build mode. After that if i go to live mode and change to FPV the mouse circle is not visible!
    Only restarting the game solves the issue.

    I also have this although i only have to travel and come home and the cursor will dissappear .It is only the the middles mouse button cursor when turning the screen. It will work but no cursor shows. i don't have to go into FPV to get this.
