Just click the buttons with the cursor

I noticed this: Sometimes there's no crosshair, at least in my case. But i was still able to operate that panel. In the Overture is no center point like in the BP, so operating the panel was quite tricky, but possible. You can also try to load the savegame.

um, this is my point - with or without the crosshair, the game does not respond to me anywhere over the console. I would expect the hand cursor to appear.

This is in contrast to, say holding the screwdriver over a button and getting a (negative) response. At least I know I have correctly positions a cursor over an active spot.

It's as though I have encountered a bug, which I find hard to believed because none else has reported a problem here.

It's pretty frustrating because the last save point is back in the digger room and I have to repeat a lot of the game (worms, spiders, shaft 13 etc,) to get to the console, in order to try new ideas, such as with and without crosshair cursor.

Don´t you have an earlier autosave?

Anyways, maybe you should ask in the technical forum.

Ok, I've now got it. I now understand how the buttons work. I expected to see something change on the console, but this is not the case.
Thanks for the help.

How did you get past this issue? I'm having the same problem with the hand icon never coming up, and using the cursor to press the buttons does nothing. The pistons don't move. I've reloaded the game and tried over and over, same problem. I'm playing Overture off Penumbra Collection, if that makes a difference.

I didn't have a crosshair there either. It's really annoying at that part.
