Players have identified a bug in Elite Dangerous where the Full Spectrum System (FSS) scanner's mouse sensitivity decreases as frame rates rise. At 120 FPS, mouse movement slows noticeably, worsening significantly by 400 FPS. This occurs because the game scales mouse input based on frame time during scanning, causing control precision to suffer. Capping the frame rate at 60 FPS currently alleviates the problem. This issue impacts exploration and scanning accuracy, prompting players to adjust settings or await a developer fix.

  • Mouse sensitivity decreases with higher FPS during FSS scanning.
  • Capping frame rate at 60 FPS reduces the slowdown effect.
