Are there any changes in the works for cursor options? Like making the cursor larger and changing the color to something that stands out? I have a lifetime membership and have been playing from the start, but earlier this year I started to lose my vision. I now have a difficult time seeing the cursor when I'm playing, and if I'm in battle and feeling a little rushed, trying to quickly find that BO "emergency power to shields" button can be almost impossible. This is seriously starting to affect my gameplay and enjoyment of STO.

    This has been mentioned several times (on these forums), but alas I presume it is not a serious enough issue to warrant any attention.

    Of course, if you listen to the the naysayers, they will tell you there is no problem with the cursor and a change is not needed.

    Never could figure out how having additonal options for the user is a bad thing, but to some it is.

    Personally i'd love to be able to switch out the person yelling profanities on my ship... that guy is a jerk.


    As for the actual topic, i support that too. Sometimes in a heated space battle i have to flail my cursor like a spaz to try and find where the darn thing went. I'd love to bea able to change it's size, shape, color, or even what it is (standard, insignia shaped, or reticle of some kind).

    The only option currently is to change your screen resoultion, it helped mme a lil, and to change from hardware cursor to software. Which helped too, seems sto loses track of it more than you do in hardware mode on windows vista and 7
