Does anyone else experience this?
All control automatically handed over to the mouse after the transition from the map screen; joystick control (if that is your default input device for non-map related activities) freezes and the mouse becomes the default input device, causing unwanted inputs during the transition- if for example I switch from the gunner's position to the map view and back to gunner again, the mouse immediately becomes the default input device. The gun then slews wildly as it tries to align itself with the last position where the mouse cursor was pointing on the map as a result. So, if I were to click the Exit Map button and transition to the gunner's pos, the gun will immediately jump to about the 1 o'clock position in the sky as that is about where the Exit button is located in the map view. It's quite disorienting and could cost the fight in a tense moment.
