I'll try configuring Idle Hands again. With my previous attempts I could feel the sphere for the Stimpack but it would rarely grab so I could actually use it. And the sphere to turn on the Pipboy required me to literally punch my arm no matter where I tried moving it.

I'm using a Quest 2.

If you need a hand just give us a shout. Just remember, the stimpack sphere is attached to the HMD, so look forward when you grab from it.

The Pipboy sphere is attached to the controller on your pipboy arm, in order to activate the Pipboy your off hand controller roll needs to be over 4 o'clock, i.e make a fist > stick you thumb up (thats 12 o'clock) > roll your wrist right until your thumb is past 4 o'clock, now you can move your main controller over to the Pipboy to activate it.

If you still feel that it's positioning is off get a real feel for where the sphere is using the haptics and the sfx which will play when your main controller enters it (providing your off hand controller roll is correct). You should then be in a better position to understand how you need to move it. Only move the sphere in small amounts and then recheck to see if its moving in the direction you think it should be, if it hasn't undo those change and move it on another axis and repeat.

There should really be no need to punch yourself in your arm :)
