Exclusive Input
Summary:
This Feature Allows you to toggle between Game input and OVRAS input, allowing only one to be active at a time. This Is effectively similiar to a "function key on a keyboard"
How to Use:
- Turn Exclusive Input Toggle on in the Settings Tab of OVRAS
- Go To Bindings, and bind the "exclusive input Toggle" action in the "System" tab.
- Press the binding to Toggle between Game input (always in this mode on startup) and OVRAS input.
Devil in the Details:
- Actions from OVRAS in the "System" Tab will ALWAYS work, while in OVRAS mode they will also block input, but while in game mode they will work along with w/e the game's binding is.
- Only Keys that have an action will be blocked, If you want to block all Input, you will need empty actions/bindings or an actual binding on every key.
- Caution: I would recommend leaving at least one trigger unbound, as it will block (while in OVRAS mode) trigger from interacting with the dashboard.
- Inter-operability with other applications will vary, But co-priority should be possible with other applications that use our same value (0x01000001)
New Action:
- Exclusive Input Toggle: This toggles between the Game Input and OVRAS input, while the exclusive input is turned on in OVRAS's Settings.
View Ratcheting:

- Changed how vestibular motion works, will now only work while +- 70 degrees from forward via hmd, preventing it from activating if you are moving side-to-side or similiar
- Adjusted Default values for vestibular motion and Auto-turn smooth speed.
- fixes a bug that would spam log if you had a setting that did not have a default value.
