Client settings reference
About 58 minutes to read
A user-facing reference to the settings exposed by the current Moonlight client, organized by the sidebar page where each control appears.
Updated against the client source on October 16, 2026.
#How to use this guide
This is a UI reference, not a dump of every internal compatibility key in the configuration schema. It documents controls that a customer can reach in the current client and identifies important conditional controls.
Labels used below:
- Conditional — shown only for the selected device, backend, model, edition, or enabled parent control.
- Per class — stored separately for the active weapon class.
- More settings — on the Aim and Flick pages, rarely changed settings sit in a more settings bar at the bottom of their card. Click it to show them; the bar names what it holds and shows how many are changed from their defaults. Each bar remembers whether you left it open.
- AI, Color, and Console — available only in the named product edition.
Most controls save automatically and are pushed to the running engine. Controls that rebuild capture, detection, or hardware connections may require Stop Moonlight followed by Start Moonlight. The relevant sections call this out.
#Current client layout
The current client no longer uses one large Settings tab. It uses a grouped sidebar and a three-pane workspace.
| Area | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Config | Selects the active edition-scoped configuration profile. |
| Refresh List | Rescans the config folder for the current edition. Next to Config in the top bar. |
| Class | Selects the active weapon class. Aim, Flick, Trigger, RCS, Humanizer, and plugin state can change with it. |
| Edition | Read-only; set at sign-in. |
| Toggle Debug View | Shows or hides the Live Preview; remembered per config. |
| Full screen (F11) | Borderless full screen; also F11. |
| ✦ Assistant | Opens the tuning assistant chat beside the pages. |
| Settings pane | Holds the collapsible cards for the selected sidebar page. |
| Center pane | Shows the unified live preview or a full-size Configs, Marketplace, Logs, plugin-authoring, or RCS-editor view. |
| Monitor pane | Shows capture, detection, inference, latency (including the Output delay prediction uses), target lock, weapon class, and device/controller telemetry. |
| Output Log | A collapsible bottom strip for recent runtime messages. Shows FPS, DPS and LAT. |
| Start / Stop Moonlight | Starts or stops the active capture, detection, and output pipeline. |
| Reset Session | Clears session state without changing the saved profile. |

#Setting scope and edition behavior
| Scope | What it means |
|---|---|
| Global profile setting | Applies to the active config regardless of weapon class. |
| Per-class setting | Loads from the selected class. Switching Class can immediately change the behavior. |
| Edition-scoped config | AI, Color, and Console keep separate config folders. A profile is not activated across editions. |
| Authenticated edition | The signed-in product determines which pages and hardware choices appear. There is no current in-app edition switch. |
Edition differences:
| Edition | Current differences |
|---|---|
| AI | Detection, Plugins, and Marketplace are available. |
| Console | Uses the AI detection surface, limits Capture to Capture Card, Magewell SDK or PS5 Remote Play, and limits output to Titan Two, Makcu Controller, Ferrum Controller or PS5 Remote Play. Moonlight Stream is two PCs only, so Console does not offer it. |
| Color | Uses Color instead of Detection and omits Plugins and Marketplace. PS5 Remote Play is not available. |
#Aim
Controls continuous target acquisition and tracking. All behavior in this chapter is per class unless noted otherwise. These are global (one value for the config): Aim Multiplier, Restricted Tracking X/Y, Manual Override Delay and Stick Sensitivity. The humanizer is always on; its Strength is per class and set separately on Aim, Flick and Recoil Control.
The old PID, Aim V2, Legacy, WindMouse, GAN, and Human selections are no longer client aim engines. The current choices are Moonlight Aim and, where supported, Script.
#Activation & Access
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Aim | Master switch for continuous aim tracking. |
| Aim Engine | Selects Moonlight Aim or a plugin-backed Script provider. Script is not offered in Color edition. |
| Provider | Conditional: Script. Selects the enabled plugin that supplies aim output. |
| Apply our humanization | Conditional: Script. Applies Moonlight profile humanization to the plugin output. |
| Target Stability | Conditional: Script. Mouse output only; global. Waits until the same target has been selected for this long before the plugin's aim output is sent. Checkbox with a slider shown in ms, 0–241.7 ms, default 91.7 ms; off by default. Does not affect Moonlight Aim, Flick or controller output. |
| Aim Mode | Hold runs while the key is held, Toggle changes state on each press, and Always On does not require a held key. |
| Aim Key | Selects one or more activation buttons supported by the active input device. |
| ADS Key | Identifies the aim-down-sights input so hip and ADS response can differ. |
| Hip Aim Speed | Conditional: ADS Key. Scales Aim Speed while not aiming down sights. 10–200%, default 70%; choosing Disabled for ADS Key resets it to 100%. |
| Foot Pedal | Enables a second keyboard or mapped input as an aim activator. |
| Foot Pedal Key | Conditional: Foot Pedal on. Selects the secondary activation key. |
| Activation Delay | Wait time between valid activation and the first aim movement. 0–300 ms, default 150 ms. |
| Max Aim Time (checkbox) | Stops aiming this long after the crosshair lands on the target (not from the key press). Release the key to aim again. |
| Max Aim Time | Conditional: the Max Aim Time checkbox is ticked. 0.00–10.00 s, default 3.00 s; 0 s stops on landing. |
The legacy Aim Preset selector is retained only for config compatibility and is not part of the current customer UI.
#Targeting & Position
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| FOV Shape | Circle, Ellipse or Rectangle. Circle uses Aim FOV; Ellipse/Rectangle use FOV Width, FOV Above and FOV Below. Dynamic FOV and Shrink FOV scale the whole shape. |
| FOV Width | Conditional: FOV Shape is Ellipse or Rectangle. Full width, 2–800 px, default 70. |
| FOV Above | Conditional: FOV Shape is Ellipse or Rectangle. Reach above the crosshair, 1–400 px, default 35. |
| FOV Below | Conditional: FOV Shape is Ellipse or Rectangle. Reach below the crosshair, 1–400 px, default 35. |
| Aim FOV | Conditional: FOV Shape = Circle. Radius around the calibrated crosshair in which a target can be selected. 1–300 px, default 35. |
| Dynamic FOV | Scales the search radius using the detected target size. |
| Shrink FOV While Aiming | Keeps the normal FOV for acquisition, then contracts toward Aiming FOV Size as the locked target approaches the crosshair. Works with or without Dynamic FOV. |
| Aiming FOV Size | Conditional: Shrink FOV While Aiming. Sets the locked search radius, 1–300 px, default 20. |
| Reference Size | Conditional: Dynamic FOV. Target size used as the scaling reference. |
| FOV Range | Conditional: Dynamic FOV. Min and Max Dynamic FOV radius, 1–300 px (defaults 20 / 50). |
| X Offset | Moves the selected aim point left or right, as a percentage of the target box width (-99 to 99%). |
| Y Offset | Moves the selected aim point up or down, as a percentage of the target box height (-99 to 99%), so it stays on the same part of the body at any distance; positive moves up. Used for Body classes (Detection → Classes). |
| Icon Y Offset | Conditional: the selected model has a class set to Icon in Detection → Classes. Icon classes (an icon, tag or health bar the game draws above the enemy) are aimed from the bottom edge of the icon box, moved by this many pixels: -300 to 300, measured at the 1920-wide reference capture and scaled to your capture resolution, so one value works at 1080p and 1440p; negative moves below the icon. Body classes use Y Offset. |
| Target Deadzone | Stops small corrections once the aim point is sufficiently close to the target. 0–20 px, default 0.5; 0 disables. |
| Enable Aim Bones | Off uses the neutral Lower Chest point. |
| Aim Bones | Conditional: Enable Aim Bones. Selects eligible target points: Top Head, Upper Head, Head, Neck, Upper Chest, Chest, Lower Chest, Upper Stomach, Stomach, Lower Stomach, Pelvis. Most meaningful when the detector supplies keypoints/pose output. |
| Vertical Scale | Conditional: Enable Aim Bones. 0.10–2.00, 1.00 neutral. |
#Moonlight Aim
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Aim Multiplier | Mouse devices only. Overall mouse response for this page, 0.01–10.00x, default 1.00x. |
| Aim Speed | Primary movement authority toward the target. |
| Split Aim Speed X/Y | Allows the vertical speed to differ from horizontal speed. |
| Aim Speed Y | Conditional: Split Aim Speed X/Y. Sets vertical movement authority. |
| Track Strength | Controls how tightly Aim follows continuing target motion after acquisition. |
| Restricted Tracking X | Holds back physical horizontal input while Aim is active, 0–100%. Controller output: default 79%; 0% keeps full manual adjustment, 100% gives Moonlight full authority. Moonlink, Moonlink Direct, Ferrum, MAKCU (both APIs) and Medius: default 0% = off; sets how strongly physical movement restricts injected tracking. |
| Restricted Tracking Y | The same for vertical input. Lower it to keep your own pull-down against recoil. |
| Manual Override Delay | Conditional: controller output, or Moonlink, Moonlink Direct, Ferrum, MAKCU (Legacy API) and Medius. On by default. Hold physical mouse movement or right-stick deflection for this long (25–2000 ms, default 500 ms) to take manual control while Restricted Tracking is active; aim resumes when the mouse stops or the stick returns to neutral. |
| Stick Sensitivity | Conditional: controller output. In-game stick sensitivity (1–10, default 5.5), Deadzone compensation (No deadzone 0%, Small 5%, Large 10%, Very large 15%, Custom) and Exact compensation (0–30%). Shared with Flick. See Tune aim for a controller. |
| X Dampener | Reduces horizontal correction response. 0–10; 0 = hard snap-on, 10 = long glide-in. Mouse devices only. |
| Y Dampener | Reduces vertical correction response. |
#Physical Control
This device-dependent card appears only when Moonlight can read useful physical motion feedback.
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Physical Control Assist | Enables shared control driven by real physical movement. |
| Assist Amount | Sets how much configured Aim movement remains while the user is moving the mouse. |
| Stationary Assist | Sets how much assistance remains after physical movement stops. |
| Activation Sensitivity | Sets how easily physical motion activates shared control. |
| Physical input source | Read-only status showing whether usable device feedback is available. |
#Humanizer
The Humanizer is part of Aim and always on. It uses its built-in movement profile; personal mouse training (ML Mouse) is retired, so there is nothing to record or train.
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Strength | How strongly AB Curves shapes the movement path, 1–100%, default 45%. The learned report texture always runs at full strength, except on Medius: the device renders the movement, so Moonlight's own report texture is not used (Strength, Tracking Pauses and Prefix Strength still apply). |
| Continuous Tracking Planner | On/off, per weapon class, default on; mouse outputs only, not in the Color edition. On: while you track a moving target, a learned human tracking model shapes the movement (set with Tracking Pauses and Prefix Strength). It never runs on a still target. Off: the normal aim controller follows the target directly, and Tracking Pauses and Prefix Strength have no effect (they are greyed out). |
| Tracking Pauses | Mouse outputs only; not in Color; only while Continuous Tracking Planner is on. How much of the learned pauses to keep: the wait before following a moving target and the hold after catching up. 0–100%, default 100% (the trained timing). Lower values shorten every pause and cap it at that percentage of 250 ms; 0% follows on the next step. Lower it if aim is late to follow a moving target. |
| Prefix Strength | Mouse outputs only; not in Color; only while Continuous Tracking Planner is on. How much of the movement already underway the tracking humanizer carries when it takes over. 0–100%, default 100%: the fastest start, but it can carry past the target. 0% starts from rest. Lower it if aim swings past a target as tracking begins. A start from rest never overshoots. |
| Profile | Read-only diagnostic showing whether a profile is loaded and summarizing recorded sessions, engagements, jitter, overshoot, and settling. |
| Post-Click Y Suppression | Temporarily stops vertical Aim correction after a shot. |
| Suppression Duration | Conditional: Post-Click Y Suppression. Sets the suppression window, 0–1000 ms, default 150 ms. |
| Tracking Reaction Delay | Min/Max 0–500 ms, default 0 / 0 = Off. Once the first flick lands, one settle period is picked from the range, then aim returns to live tracking. Equal values give a fixed delay; physical input and recoil control continue. |
| Direction Change Delay | Min/Max 0–250 ms, default 0 / 0 = Off. One delay per confirmed direction reversal. |
| Finish current correction | Conditional: Direction Change Delay Max above 0. Continues to the aim point active before the reversal. |
| Return to live tracking | Min/Max 0–500 ms, default 20 / 20. Blends back to the live target after landing settle or a direction-change reaction. Always shown. |
Color edition shows Strength, Post-Click Y Suppression, Tracking Reaction Delay and the direction-delay controls.
#Guided Setup
Guided Setup, in the Activation & Access card header, walks through the page's controls one at a time: Activation & Access, then Targeting & Position, then Moonlight Aim. It needs the Assistant panel. On controllers it first asks for In-game Stick Sensitivity and Deadzone Compensation (No deadzone 0%, Small 5%, Large 10%, Very large 15%, or an exact 0–30%).
#Flick
Controls snap-to-target movement. Flick settings are per class.
On controller outputs (Titan Two, Makcu Controller, Ferrum Controller and PS5 Remote Play), the client currently redirects the Flick page to Trigger because those controller paths do not expose the desktop Flick surface.
#Activation & Access
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Flick | Master switch for Flick. |
| Flick Mode | Selects Hold, Toggle, or Always On activation. |
| Flick Key | Selects the activation button supported by the current device. |
| Foot Pedal | Enables a second activation key. |
| Foot Pedal Key | Conditional: Foot Pedal on. Selects the secondary key. |
| Activation Delay | Wait time before the flick begins. 0–300 ms, default 150 ms. |
| Max Flick Time | When on, Flick stops this long after the crosshair reaches the target. Release the key to flick again. |
| Max Flick Time duration | Conditional: Max Flick Time. 0.00–10.00 s, default 3.00 s; 0 s stops on arrival. |
| Post-Shot Flick Pause | Pauses Flick briefly after a shot, useful for semi-automatic weapons. |
| Pause Duration | Conditional: Post-Shot Flick Pause. Sets the post-shot pause, 0–500 ms, default 100 ms. |
The legacy Flick Preset selector is hidden in the current UI.
#Targeting & Position
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| FOV Shape | Circle, Ellipse or Rectangle (default Circle). |
| FOV Width | Conditional: Ellipse/Rectangle. Full width in capture pixels, 2–800, default 66. |
| FOV Above / FOV Below | Conditional: Ellipse/Rectangle. Reach above/below the crosshair, 1–400 px, default 33. Keep Below short to ignore targets on the ground. |
| Flick FOV | Conditional: Circle. Search radius around the crosshair for a flick target, 1–400 px, default 33. |
| Dynamic FOV | Scales Flick FOV using target size. |
| Shrink FOV While Flicking | Keeps the normal Flick FOV for acquisition, then contracts toward Flicking FOV Size while Flick is active. Works with or without Dynamic FOV. |
| Flicking FOV Size | Conditional: Shrink FOV While Flicking. Sets the engaged radius, 1–400 px, default 20. |
| Reference Size | Conditional: Dynamic FOV. Target-size reference for scaling. |
| FOV Range | Conditional: Dynamic FOV. Minimum and maximum Dynamic FOV radius, 1–400 px (defaults 20 / 50). |
| X Offset / Y Offset | Percent of the target box width/height (-99 to 99%). Positive X moves the aim point left, positive Y moves it up. |
| Icon Y Offset | Conditional: the selected model has a class set to Icon in Detection → Classes. As on Aim, for Flick: pixels from the bottom edge of an Icon box (-300 to 300, scaled to your capture resolution); negative moves below the icon. Body classes use the X Offset / Y Offset percentages. |
| Target Deadzone | Stops small corrections near the selected flick point. 0–20 px, default 0.5; 0 disables. |
| Enable Flick Bones | Turns on bone selection for Flick. |
| Flick Bones | Conditional: Enable Flick Bones. Selects eligible target points, the same 11 as Aim Bones (Top Head … Pelvis); most meaningful when the detector supplies keypoints/pose output. |
| Vertical Scale | Conditional: Enable Flick Bones. 0.10–2.00, 1.00 neutral. |
#Moonlight Flick
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Flick Multiplier | Conditional: mouse outputs. Overall Flick mouse response, 0.01–10.00x, default 1.00x. Global for the config, not per class. |
| Aim Speed | Primary flick movement authority. |
| Track Strength | Follow-up authority while the target continues moving. |
| Restricted Tracking X / Restricted Tracking Y | 0–100%. Controller: suppresses horizontal/vertical physical stick input while Flick is active, default 79%. Mouse devices (Moonlink, Moonlink Direct, Ferrum, MAKCU incl. New API, Medius): suppresses opposing mouse movement, default 0%. |
| Manual Override Delay | Conditional: Moonlink, Moonlink Direct, Ferrum, MAKCU (Legacy API), Medius, or controller output. When checked (default on), sustained opposing input for this long (25–2000 ms, default 500 ms) temporarily takes manual control; Flick resumes when the mouse stops or the stick returns to neutral. |
| Stick Sensitivity | Conditional: controller output. In-game stick sensitivity (1–10), Deadzone compensation preset (No deadzone 0%, Small 5%, Large 10%, Very large 15%, Custom) and Exact compensation (0–30%). Shared with Aim. |
| X Dampener / Y Dampener | Reduces response independently on each axis. 0–10; defaults X 0, Y 1. |
#Flick Humanizer
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Strength | How strongly AB Curves shapes the Flick path, 1–100%, default 45%. The learned report texture always runs at full strength, except on Medius: the device renders the movement, so Moonlight's own report texture is not used (Strength, Tracking Pauses and Prefix Strength still apply). |
| Continuous Tracking Planner | On/off, per weapon class, default on; mouse outputs only, not in the Color edition. On: while you track a moving target, a learned human tracking model shapes the movement (set with Tracking Pauses and Prefix Strength). It never runs on a still target. Off: the normal aim controller follows the target directly, and Tracking Pauses and Prefix Strength have no effect (they are greyed out). |
| Tracking Pauses | Mouse outputs only; not in Color; only while Continuous Tracking Planner is on. How much of the learned pauses to keep: the wait before following a moving target and the hold after catching up. 0–100%, default 100% (the trained timing). Lower values shorten every pause and cap it at that percentage of 250 ms; 0% follows on the next step. Lower it if aim is late to follow a moving target. |
| Prefix Strength | Mouse outputs only; not in Color; only while Continuous Tracking Planner is on. How much of the movement already underway the tracking humanizer carries when it takes over. 0–100%, default 100%: the fastest start, but it can carry past the target. 0% starts from rest. Lower it if aim swings past a target as tracking begins. A start from rest never overshoots. |
| Profile | Read-only learned-profile status. |
| Post-Click Y Suppression | Suppresses vertical Flick correction immediately after a click. |
| Suppression Duration | Conditional: suppression enabled. Sets the suppression window, 0–1000 ms, default 150 ms. |
| Tracking Reaction Delay | Min/Max 0–500 ms (default 0 / 0 = Off). Once the first flick lands, picks one settle period from the range, then returns to live tracking. Equal values give a fixed delay. |
| Direction Change Delay | Min/Max 0–250 ms (default 0 / 0 = Off). |
| Finish current correction | Conditional: Direction Change Delay Max above 0. Continues to the aim point active before the reversal. |
| Return to live tracking | Min/Max 0–500 ms (default 20 / 20). |
Color edition titles this card Flick Humanization and shows Strength, Post-Click Y Suppression, Tracking Reaction Delay and the direction-delay controls.
#Flick Guided Setup
Flick has the same Guided Setup button in its Activation & Access card header; it walks the whole Flick page.
#Trigger
Automatically fires when a valid target overlaps the trigger zone. Trigger settings are per class.
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Trigger Preset / Apply Preset | Selects Custom, Safe & Legit, Balanced Default, or Instant. Apply currently changes only Trigger Scale; the delay values in these presets are legacy and do not affect First-Shot or Multishot Delay. |
| Trigger | Master switch for automated firing. |
| Trigger Key | Selects the activation input. |
| Foot Pedal | Enables a secondary Trigger activation key. |
| Foot Pedal Key | Conditional: Foot Pedal on. Selects that key. |
| Trigger Activates RCS | Allows a Trigger-fired shot to activate recoil control. |
| Trigger Scale | Sets the size of the trigger zone. 1–200, default 10; hidden while Head/Body Split is on. |
| Trigger FOV | Color edition. How close target color must be to the crosshair, in pixels (0–50, default 4; 0 = exactly under the crosshair). Trigger Scale or Head/Body Split must also contain the crosshair. Global, not per class. |
| Head/Body Split | Enables independent head and body trigger zones. |
| Head Scale | Conditional: split enabled. Head-zone size, % of target box width, 1–200, default 25. |
| Body Scale | Conditional: split enabled. Body-zone size, % of target box width, 1–200, default 50. |
| Head/Body Split % | Conditional: split enabled. % of box height from the top where the head zone ends, 1–99, default 35. |
| First-Shot Delay — Min / Max | Randomized delay range before the first shot. 0–300 ms, default 82–124 ms. |
| Multishot Delay — Min / Max | Randomized interval range for later shots while Trigger remains active. 0–990 ms in 10 ms steps, default 160–380 ms; 0 = full auto. |
| Trigger Polling | The longest Trigger waits before checking the target again. Trigger already reacts at once to every new detection, so this only paces re-checks in between (while a delay runs or after you release the key). Shown as rate and interval, for example 1000 Hz (1 ms). 0–10 ms, default 1 ms, the fastest; 0 reads Max rate and behaves like 1 ms. |
#Recoil Control
RCS pulls against recoil while you fire. RCS settings are per class unless noted. The page is split into cards, and each card shows only the rows that apply to the selected Activation Mode and output device. Controller outputs are Titan Two, Makcu Controller, Ferrum Controller and PS5 Remote Play; every other output is a mouse output.
#Activation Mode
The first card, Recoil Control, holds the master switch and the mode that decides every other card.
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| RCS | Master switch for recoil compensation. |
| Activation Mode | When RCS runs and how it pulls. Default Within FOV. |
| Mode | Behavior |
|---|---|
| Always Active | Pulls down by RCS Strength whenever you fire. |
| Enemy Detected | As Always Active, but only while the crosshair is near an enemy box (Enemy Detection Threshold). |
| Within FOV | As Always Active, but only while an enemy is inside the aim FOV. |
| Pattern Based | Plays the weapon class's recoil pattern file (Pattern card). |
| Script (Plugin) | Moonlight adds no recoil of its own; enabled Lua plugins with the RCS hook provide all of it while you fire. RCS still follows Activation Delay and Max Time. On Titan Two and Makcu Controller the plugin output drives the right stick. |
| Recoil Boost | RCS activity follows firing like Always Active (Activation Delay, Max Time, Trigger Activates RCS), but Moonlight emits no recoil of its own. While RCS is active, aim pulls down harder on the locked target by the Recoil Boost %. Works on mouse and controller. |
Which rows each mode shows:
| Card → row | Shown for |
|---|---|
| Strength → RCS Strength | Always Active, Enemy Detected, Within FOV. |
| Strength → Fine Strength | Controller outputs, in Always Active, Enemy Detected, Within FOV and Pattern Based. |
| Strength → Recoil Boost | Recoil Boost. Script (Plugin) shows a short note in this card instead; the card is hidden when it has nothing to show (Pattern Based on a mouse output). |
| Timing → Activation Delay (ms), Max Time (ms) | Every mode. |
| Timing → Enemy Detection Threshold | Enemy Detected. |
| Timing → Require Enemy Visible | Pattern Based. |
| Timing → RCS Pull Rate | Always Active, Enemy Detected, Within FOV and Script (Plugin), on mouse outputs. |
| Pattern card | Pattern Based. Recoil-Assisted Acquisition only on mouse outputs. |
| RCS Humanizer card | Always Active, Enemy Detected and Within FOV, on mouse outputs. |
#Strength
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| RCS Strength | How strongly RCS pulls down, 1–999, default 1. Raise it in small steps if the crosshair still climbs while firing; lower it if the crosshair is pulled below the target. How often it pulls is set by RCS Pull Rate in Timing. |
| Fine Strength | Controller outputs. Multiplies the vertical recoil pull, 0.10x–2.00x, default 1.00x. Fills the gap between whole RCS Strength steps (for example when 1 is too weak and 2 too much); in Pattern Based it scales the pattern's vertical pull. It stacks with Recoil Scale in the Titan Two settings. |
| Recoil Boost | Recoil Boost mode. 0–200%, step 5, default 0%. While RCS is active and aim is locked on a target, vertical aim correction is pulled down this much harder and the Y Dampener is ignored. |
#Timing
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Activation Delay (ms) | Wait after you start firing before RCS begins, 1–4000 ms, default 130 ms, with about 2 ms of random variation per spray. In Pattern Based the pattern's clock still starts at your first shot: nothing is pulled during the delay, then the pull jumps to where the pattern would be by then and continues on schedule. |
| Max Time (ms) | RCS stops this long after you start firing, even if you keep firing. 1–20000 ms, default 20000 ms. In Pattern Based the last pattern row repeats until this time is reached or you release fire. |
| Enemy Detection Threshold | Enemy Detected. 0–100%, default 50%. RCS runs while the distance from the crosshair to an enemy box centre (the locked target first, then any other box) is at most this % of the box's diagonal. Lower is stricter. |
| Require Enemy Visible | Pattern Based. On: a spray starts only while an enemy is detected, then plays on even if the enemy is lost. Off (default): the pattern runs whenever you fire. |
| RCS Pull Rate | Always Active, Enemy Detected, Within FOV and Script (Plugin), mouse outputs. Interval between recoil pulls, 1–10 ms, default 6 ms; shown as rate and interval, for example 166 Hz (6 ms). Each pull moves the full RCS Strength amount, so a faster rate pulls more often and compensates more strongly. In Script (Plugin) it paces the plugin's recoil. One value for all weapon classes. |
#Pattern
Shown only in Pattern Based mode.
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Pattern File | Text field and Browse...: the recoil pattern (CSV) this weapon class plays. Each row is one shot: horizontal move, vertical move (negative = pull down), delay in ms. |
| Open Pattern Editor | Opens the pattern editor in the center pane with this class's pattern file. |
| Units line | Under the editor button: Portable (degrees) or Legacy units (see below). Pick your game so this pattern can be converted. appears when a portable pattern has no game set. |
| Game | The game you play; one setting for all weapon classes. Listed: CS2, CS:GO, Apex Legends, Titanfall 2, Team Fortress 2, Valorant, Overwatch 2, Call of Duty (Modern Warfare 2019 and later, Warzone). For any other game choose Other game (calibrate 360°). |
| Calibrate 360° | Under Game. Measures the turn rate of a game that is not listed. Needs Moonlight started, a mouse output and Game Sens set on Input Device. Turn sends Counts per 360° after a 3-second countdown (click into the game during it); adjust the count until one Turn spins the view exactly once, then Save. |
| Scope Sensitivity | Portable patterns only. The game's ADS/scope sensitivity multiplier for this weapon class, 0.01x–5.00x, default 1.00x (the same as hip fire). Set it to the in-game scoped sensitivity ratio so the pattern pulls the right amount while aiming down sights. |
| Pattern Strength | How hard this weapon class pulls the pattern, on both axes, 0.1x–100.0x, default 1.0x (as written in the file). Raise it if the pattern under-corrects, lower it if it pulls too far; shot timing is unchanged. For portable patterns 1.0x is usually right. |
| Pattern Randomness | Random variation on each shot, 0.0–5.0 pattern units, default 0.5; 0.0 plays the pattern exactly as written. Adds noise on both axes, a slow drift, a small wobble and timing jitter. Pattern Strength does not scale it. |
| Recoil-Assisted Acquisition | Mouse outputs. With Aim held, gradually acquires upper chest or neck during the pattern; with Aim released the full pattern plays unchanged. Uses box proportions. Default off. |
Portable and legacy patterns. A portable pattern is stored in degrees of camera turn. Once Game is set (from the list, or with Calibrate 360° for any other game), it pulls the same whatever your resolution, game FOV, DPI, Game Sens or Aim Multiplier, because Moonlight converts it with your Game Sens, Scope Sensitivity and the game's turn rate. Until a game is set, a portable pattern pulls nothing. A legacy pattern behaves exactly as before: its strength depends on this PC's settings (resolution, game FOV, Game Sens, Aim Multiplier), so it may need a different Pattern Strength on another setup. To convert one, open it with Open Pattern Editor, choose Make Portable in the Units card, then Save.
#Pattern editor
Open Pattern Editor shows the editor in the center pane with the active weapon class's pattern. The canvas draws the path the crosshair is pulled along, from the origin, one point per shot; down = pull down.
| Control | What it does |
|---|---|
| Pattern list | Patterns in the rcs_patterns folder. Pick one to open it. |
| Open... / New | Opens a pattern CSV from anywhere, or starts an empty pattern. |
| Save | Saves the pattern (Ctrl+S). When the editor was opened from a weapon class, that class now uses the saved file. Patterns that ship with Moonlight are never overwritten: Save offers a copy. The previous version of your own file is kept in rcs_patterns/.history. |
| Save As... / Duplicate | Saves into a game folder inside rcs_patterns under a new name, or saves an editable copy next to this file and switches to it. |
| Undo / Redo | Ctrl+Z / Ctrl+Y. |
| Select | Click a shot to select it and drag to move it; drag on empty space for a selection box (Shift/Ctrl adds). Arrow keys nudge (Shift ×10, Ctrl ×0.1). Right-click a shot for Delete or Insert point after. |
| Draw | Drag to draw the whole pattern freehand from the origin. The stroke becomes shots by Bullet count (evenly spaced; Bullets 2–2000, default 30) or Drawing speed (one shot per fire-rate interval of the time you took), set in the Draw card with Fire rate (RPM). |
| Add | Click on a line to insert a shot there, or on empty space to add one at the end. |
| - / + / Fit | Zoom out and in (also the mouse wheel), or fit the whole pattern in view (F). Middle-drag or Space+drag pans. |
| Play | Animates the shots in time order with their delays. |
| Side card | What it does |
|---|---|
| Selected Shot | Shown while shots are selected: Row dx, Row dy (negative = pull down) and Delay (ms); later shots move with an edited shot. With several shots selected, Delay sets all of them. Delete and Insert After. |
| Units | Says whether the pattern is portable (degrees) or legacy. Make Portable converts a legacy pattern to degrees with this PC's current settings and your Game (Pattern card), so it feels the same here and keeps that feel on other setups. Set Game first, then Save. |
| Transform | Scale X / Scale Y in percent about the origin (Same for both links them) with Apply Scale, and Mirror X to flip left and right; both act on the selected shots, or the whole pattern when nothing is selected. Total pull with Set Total Pull scales the whole pattern to that total vertical pull. |
| Smooth | Moving average evens out the shot positions (same shots and timing); Catmull-Rom curve adds shots on a smooth curve between existing ones and splits their delays, so the total time stays the same. Strength 1–10. A green dashed line previews the result while the card is open; Apply Smoothing applies it. |
| Timing | Fire rate (RPM) and Delay (ms) (60000 / RPM), with Apply Delay for the selected shots, or every shot when nothing is selected. |
| Details | Optional Name, Game, Weapon and Notes, stored next to the CSV. The engine never reads them. |
The strip under the canvas shows the number of shots, the total time, the weapon class the editor was opened from and save messages. Lines the engine cannot read are skipped and reported, and you are asked before a save drops them.
#RCS Humanizer
This card is limited to Always Active, Enemy Detected and Within FOV, and is hidden on controller outputs.
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Strength | How strongly AB Curves shapes recoil output, 1–100%, default 45%. |
| Profile | Read-only movement-profile status. |
The humanizer is always on. Color edition shows only Strength, titled Recoil Humanization.
#Capture
Selects the frame source and debug presentation.
Changes to source, format, resolution, crop, or hardware connection should be applied with Stop Moonlight → Start Moonlight.
#Capture Mode
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Capture Mode | Selects Capture Card, Magewell SDK, NDI-V2, Screenshot, UDP, Moonlight Stream or PS5 Remote Play. PS5 Remote Play is AI and Console only. Console offers Capture Card, Magewell SDK, PS5 Remote Play and Moonlight Stream. Default: Capture Card. |
| Enable Crop | On (default): the detector sees only the square Detection Area at the screen centre. Off: it sees the whole captured frame and Detection Area is ignored. Applies after Stop Moonlight → Start Moonlight. |
| Detection Area | Size in pixels of that centre square. Apply saves a typed size; Match model (on by default) uses the model's input size, so pixels reach the model 1:1 without resizing, and disables typing. Smaller is faster and only finds targets near the crosshair; larger sees more of the screen. Greyed out while Enable Crop is off. Applies after Stop Moonlight → Start Moonlight. |
| Skip duplicate frames | Default On (recommended). When the game or capture card sends the same image again, detection is not run on it, because the result would be identical, so DPS follows the game's real frame rate. Off runs detection on every captured frame, duplicates included, up to the capture FPS: DPS reads higher, but the extra detections are copies of the previous one and add load, not accuracy. |
#PS5 Remote Play
Shown when Capture Mode or Output is PS5 Remote Play. Changes apply after Stop Moonlight → Start Moonlight. Setup: PS5 Remote Play.
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Console | The paired console. Pair a console, Wake, Login passcode, Forget. |
| Resolution | 1080p or 720p, default 1080p. |
| Frame rate | 60 or 30, default 60. |
| Codec | H.264 or H.265, default H.264. |
#Moonlight Stream
Shown for Moonlight Stream. Changes apply after Stop Moonlight → Start Moonlight. Setup: Moonlight Stream.
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Host | The gaming PC's host name or IP address. |
| App | The app name as it appears in Sunshine, default Desktop. |
| Resolution | 1280x720, 1920x1080, 2560x1440 or 3840x2160, default 1920x1080. |
| FPS | 10–240, default 60. |
| Bitrate | 500–200000 Kbps, default 20000. |
| Pair host | Shows a 4-digit PIN to enter on the host within 3 minutes. |
#Debug Display
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Debug View | What the preview shows: Detection Area (default; only the square the detector analyses), Full Frame (the whole captured frame with the Detection Area outlined) or Off. |
| Display FPS | Limits preview refresh rate without changing capture FPS. 30/60/120/144/240, default 30. |
#Crosshair Calibration
This card moved from Game Profiles to Capture.
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Enable crosshair center calibration | Uses custom crosshair coordinates rather than the geometric frame center. |
| Offset sliders (X, then Y) | Two unlabeled sliders. The first moves the calibrated capture center horizontally, the second vertically. -200 to 200 px, default 0. |
#UDP Stream
Shown only for UDP capture.
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| UDP URL | Only the port is used: Moonlight listens on that port on every network adapter, so the address part is ignored (for example udp://0.0.0.0:1234). |
UDP always uses MJPEG with TurboJPEG; the old H.264 options are hidden.
#NDI Source
Shown only for NDI-V2.
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Source | Selects a discovered NDI sender. |
| Refresh | Re-runs NDI source discovery. |
| Status | Reports the selected source and connection state. |
#Capture Card / Magewell
Shown for Capture Card and Magewell SDK.
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Capture Source | Selects the card/input device. |
| Format | Selects an enumerated card format; it sets resolution, FPS and pixel format together. Refresh re-queries the device. |
| Custom Format | Adds or removes a manual format string when enumeration is incomplete. |
| Capture Method | Current shipped path is Native DirectShow C++. |
Legacy OpenCV buffer, FFmpeg capture options, capture subprocess mode, and the manual GPU Direct switch are not current customer settings. GPU Direct is selected automatically from the detection backend.
#Detection
Available in AI and Console editions. The shipped native path uses synchronous inference.
Cards, in order: Backend & Model, Classes, Target Continuity, Optic Detection.
#Backend & Model
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Backend | Selects ONNX, TensorRT, or OpenVINO. ONNX uses DirectML in the current client. |
| TRT Optimization | Conditional: TensorRT. TensorRT engine build level, Level 1–5, default Level 3 (the recommended low-latency level). Higher levels build longer and are not guaranteed faster. |
| Rebuild TRT Cache | Conditional: TensorRT. Deletes Moonlight's local TensorRT compiled caches; stop Moonlight first. The next Start rebuilds the selected model. The original model file is never deleted. |
| OpenVINO Device | Conditional: OpenVINO. Selects the OpenVINO execution device. |
| OpenVINO Precision | Conditional: OpenVINO. Selects the model precision. |
| Model File | Selects a local or imported targeting model. |
| Input Size | Conditional: dynamic models (model file name contains "dynamic"). Sets detector input width and height. 128–1280, default 640. |
| Confidence Floor | Minimum score accepted as a detection. 0–100%, default 20%. |
| NMS Threshold | Intersection-over-union threshold used to merge overlapping detections. 1–99%, default 70%. |
Shipped builds run object detection models only, so Model Type and Target Keypoints are not shown. ONNX provider/thread selectors, Async Inference, Log detailed inference timing, Detector Process Mode, and Detector Delay are compatibility-only or retired and are not current client controls.
#Classes
One block per class of the selected model, named from the model itself (for example body (0) and icon (1)). A model without class names shows Class 0–3; a store model uses the class names its pack publishes. Settings are saved per model file, so each model keeps its own. Where to aim stays on the Aim and Flick pages (Targeting & Position).
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Side Selector | Conditional: supported CS2 models. Selects CT or T and turns off Target for the corresponding classes. |
| Target (the class checkbox) | Aim at this class. Off ignores its boxes everywhere. |
| Priority | 1 is picked first when several classes are in view, then 2, and so on. Any has no preference and comes after the ranked classes, nearest first. A locked target is kept until it is lost. |
| Confidence | Minimum confidence for this class, 1–100%. It can be lower or higher than Confidence Floor. Global uses Confidence Floor. |
| Box is | Body (default): the box is the player, aimed with the Aim/Flick Targeting & Position settings (bones, Y Offset as a % of the box). Icon: the box is an icon, tag or health bar the game draws above the enemy, aimed below its bottom edge by the Icon Y Offset in pixels on the Aim and Flick pages. |
| Ignore when inside another class | Drops a box of this class when it overlaps a box of another class (the former Class Filter). |
| Apply recommended settings | Conditional: the model or its store pack publishes recommended class settings. Fills Priority, Confidence, Box is and the switches with the maker's values. |
Classes 0–3 use the same saved switches as the former Disable Classes and Class Filter, so older configs, the CS2 Side Selector and the web panel keep working.
#Target Continuity
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Target Switch Delay | Minimum time on the current target before switching, 0–1500 ms, default 500. A target that moves far from the crosshair still drops the lock immediately. |
| Detection Coasting | Briefly preserves target state through a missed detector frame. Checkbox with a 20–300 ms slider, default 100 ms. |
| Idle Reset | Clears retained legacy aim state. 100–3000 ms, default 500. Current Aim/Flick already clear their target state when a target is lost. |
Target Stability (Script Aim only) is on the Aim page, in Activation & Access.
#Optic Detection
The last card on the page. It starts collapsed unless Optic Detection is on with at least one optic set up.
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Optic Detection (experimental) | Turns optic detection on. |
| AI Optic Detection / Template / OCR | The two method tabs. |
| Add optic from capture | Template / OCR. Adds an optic from the current frame. |
| Edit adjustments for selected optic | Template / OCR. Opens the selected optic's adjustments. |
See the Optic Detection guide.
#Color
Available only in Color edition and shown instead of Detection.
#Color Detection
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Detection mode | Selects OpenCV Contours or Pixel detection. |
| Aim point | Chooses the detected-region point used as the target, including X/Y and nearest-point behavior. |
| Color preset | Selects a built-in target-color range or Custom. |
| Custom color space | Selects HSV or RGB. Always shown; used only when Color preset is Custom. |
#Custom Color Bounds (preset = Custom)
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| H/S/V min / max | Conditional: Custom HSV. Accepted HSV range. H 0–179, S and V 0–255. |
| R/G/B min / max | Conditional: Custom RGB. Accepted RGB range, 0–255. |
#Detection Tuning
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Min blob size | Rejects regions smaller than the threshold. 1–2000, default 1. |
| Max blob size | Rejects regions larger than the threshold. 0–20000, default 20000; 0 = no limit. |
| Nearest cluster area | Minimum pixel area (1–100, default 8) for a cluster to count as a target in nearest mode. |
#Target Lock (anti-switch)
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Enable target lock hysteresis | Reduces rapid switching between nearby color targets. |
| Hysteresis distance | Distance within which the existing target receives lock preference. Default 40. |
| Switch threshold | Improvement required before another target replaces the current lock. Default 20. |
| Min lock (s) | Minimum lock duration. |
| Switch cooldown (s) | Minimum time between target switches. |
#Mask Morphology
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Dilation / Iterations | Expands the color mask and controls how many dilation passes run. Default On, 5 iterations (0–15). |
| Closing | Fills small gaps in mask regions. Default On. |
| Blur / Size | Smooths mask noise before region selection. Default Off, size 0 (0–25). |
#Prediction
This page was formerly called Smoothing. Predictor V2 is now the only user-facing prediction system and is enabled by default.
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Enable Predictor V2 | Enables measured-latency target-motion lead. Disabling it requires confirmation. |
| Extra Lead | Extra milliseconds of lead on top of the delays Moonlight measures itself (detection time and the Output delay shown in the Monitor). Raise it if shots land behind moving targets, lower it if aim sits ahead. 0–300 ms, default 0 ms. |
| Lock Delay (ms) | Wait time after acquiring a new target before lead begins. 0–1000 ms, default 100 ms. Prediction keeps calculating during the delay; 0 applies lead immediately. |
| Maximum Prediction Distance | Checkbox. Off uses 160 px. On reveals a 5–160 px slider (default 50 px) that caps the final prediction offset. |
| Lead Engage Distance | Checkbox. Off uses 300 px. On reveals a 0–300 px slider (default 40 px): distance beyond the target box at which lead may engage. |
| Stabilize Box Size (experimental) | Per class. Replaces size smoothing with a bounded time-based filter; target center movement is unchanged. Default off. |
| Distance Extra Lead (experimental) | Per class. Adds extra lead by target box height from up to 8 calibration points (Box height (px) / Additional lead (ms), 0–300 ms each; Snapshot target box, Remove selected). Values interpolate and add to Extra Lead; total extra lead is capped at 300 ms. Hidden while Detection → Optic Detection is enabled (optic-specific curves are used instead). |
| Velocity Lead | Multiplies the velocity component of lead. 0–200%, default 100%. |
| Vertical Lead | Share of predicted vertical movement to lead (jumping, crouching, stairs), 0–100%, default 0%. 0% leads horizontally only. Applies to every device. |
Movement prediction is automatic when supported input is available.
Measured latency and lag calibration are automatic. The Monitor's Output delay row shows the output-path delay prediction leads by: the time from Moonlight's output to the first captured frame that shows it, learned from your own aim movement during normal play. It reads (measured) once learned, (learning) while a starting value is used, and (controller) when a controller's measured stick delay is used. Do not add it to Extra Lead; prediction already includes it. The former Kalman/V1 modes, shared Target Deadzone, Queue Age, manual latency debug block, and Measurement Stability firewall are not exposed on the current page. Aim and Flick now own separate Target Deadzone controls, and post-click suppression moved into their Humanizer cards.
#Filtering
Filtering rejects detections that match exclusion rules.
#Enemy Color Filter
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Enemy Color Filter | Enables team-color filtering. Ticked = on. Default off. |
| Color | Selects the enemy/team color to retain. Default purple. |
#Color Ignore Filter (Native)
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Color+Shape Ignore Filter | Rejects detections that match any enabled color rule. |
| Show Debug Overlay | Draws filter regions and matches in the debug view. |
| Decay (ms) | Keeps a recent rule match active briefly to prevent flicker. 0–500 ms, default 150 ms; 0 disables. |
| Rule list | Shows configured exclusion rules. |
| Add / Edit / Remove | Manages rules. |
| Color | Selects the color to match: R, G, B, or Pick. |
| Tolerance | Sets allowed color distance. 1–100, default 30. |
| Area (Min / Max) | Restricts matching by colored-region size, 1–100000 px. |
| Aspect Ratio (Min / Max) | Restricts matching by region proportions, 0.1–10. |
| Search Region | Searches inside, above, below, or at custom offsets from a detection box. |
Native releases do not currently perform the legacy shape-classification or rotation-lock behaviors. The non-native development UI may still call this Color + Shape Ignore Filter. Template Matching Ignore Filter is omitted from shipped native builds.
#Detection Masks
For third-person games: cover your own character so it is never a target. A detection whose box centre is inside an enabled mask is ignored by Aim, Flick, Trigger and Recoil Control's enemy check.
- Tick Enable Detection Masks.
- Click + Rectangle or + Ellipse. The new mask starts at the bottom middle of the detection area.
- With the game running, click Capture Frame to see the detection area behind the masks.
- Drag the mask over your character. Drag a corner to resize it, or use the arrow keys (Shift for bigger steps). You can also type Centre X, Centre Y, Width and Height as a % of the detection area.
- Check it on the Debug view (Capture → Debug View: Detection Area): masks are violet, and a masked detection is a thin grey box.
- Make the mask a little larger than your character so crouching and emotes stay inside it.
- Masks follow the detection area, so they stay in place when you change the crop size or resolution.
- Up to 16 masks. Untick one in the list to keep it without using it.
- An enemy behind your character is ignored only while its box centre is inside the mask. If aiming down sights moves the camera, cover both positions.
#Visuals
AI, Color and Console. The Visuals page sets what the Debug view draws. Every change applies immediately. Raw boxes show the detection score; tracking boxes show ID: and the number Moonlight gives the target it follows.
#Detection Boxes
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Show raw boxes | On by default. Every box the detector finds this frame, before tracking. |
| Raw box color | Conditional: Show raw boxes on. Default yellow (#ffff09). |
| Raw box style | Conditional: Show raw boxes on. Solid draws the full outline, Dashed a broken outline, Corners only marks the four corners. Default Solid. |

| Show tracking boxes | On by default. The boxes of the targets Moonlight is following. |
| Tracking box color | Conditional: Show tracking boxes on. Default purple (#a78bfa). |
| Tracking box style | Conditional: Show tracking boxes on. Solid, Dashed or Corners, default Solid. |
| Tracking box thickness | Conditional: Show tracking boxes on. 1–6 px, default 2. A target just picked up is drawn one pixel thinner. |
| Show tracking IDs | On by default. Labels the tracking boxes ID:n, the number Moonlight gives each followed target, so you can see when it keeps or swaps a target. Lost boxes have their own label switch. |
| Show lost / estimated boxes | On by default. Where a target that just disappeared is expected to be. These boxes are always drawn red. |
| Lost box style | Conditional: Show lost / estimated boxes on. Solid, Dashed or Corners, default Dashed. |
| Lost box thickness | Conditional: Show lost / estimated boxes on. 1–6 px, default 1. |
| Show lost labels | Conditional: Show lost / estimated boxes on. On by default. Writes ID:n lost under each lost box, so you can see which target Moonlight is estimating. |
#Target Line
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Show target line | On by default. A line from the screen center to the target being aimed at. |
| Line color | Conditional: Show target line on. Default orange (#ffa500). |
#Aim Point
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Show aim point | On by default. Draw a marker on the spot Moonlight aims at. Style, Size and Color apply while it is on. |
| Style | Conditional: Show aim point on. The marker's shape: a filled Dot, a Ring, an X, a Cross (+), a Square or a Diamond. Default Dot. |
| Size | Conditional: Show aim point on. 2–40 px, default 9. |
| Color | Conditional: Show aim point on. Default red (#ff3b3b). |
| Show predicted aim point | On by default. Also marks where Moonlight actually aims: the aim point moved by aim prediction's lead, joined to the aim point by a dashed line. It is shown only while prediction leads the target. While it is shown, the target line ends at the predicted point. |
| Predicted color | Conditional: Show predicted aim point on. Default cyan (#22d3ee). |
| Predicted style | Conditional: Show predicted aim point on. The same six shapes, default Dot. It can differ from the aim point's, so the two are easy to tell apart. |
| Predicted size | Conditional: Show predicted aim point on. 2–40 px, default 9. |
Reset to defaults (in the app) puts every setting on the page back to its default. On the web panel, colors are picked with the swatch or typed as a hex value.
#Game Profiles
Game Profiles contains weapon-class management and three automatic weapon-recognition methods. AI Weapon, OCR, and Template Match are mutually exclusive so they cannot compete to change the active class.

| Train Model | Opens the native classifier training workflow. |
The page-level trainer preview is hidden; the unified center preview shows the live HUD region.
#Configs
Configs is now a separate top-level page.
#Side pane
The side pane has the Config Profiles, Language, Web Panel and Community configs cards.
| Control | What it does |
|---|---|
| Active | Config Profiles. Shows the active config name. |
| UI Language | Language. Changes the client interface language: English, Arabic, German, Spanish, Filipino, French, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Russian, Swedish, Thai, Turkish, Chinese. |
| UI scale | Language. 70–150%, default 100%. Takes effect the next time Moonlight starts. |
| Settings text | Language. 80–130%, default 100%. Makes the text in the settings pane smaller or larger; only the settings pane changes, so the preview keeps its size. Applies right away. |
| Allow changes from the web panel | Web Panel. On by default. Turning it off stops web changes and support sessions. |
| Allow device and model changes from the web / Allow plugin changes from the web / Allow the web assistant to read live aim stats | Web Panel. Each on by default; available only while Allow changes from the web panel is on. |
| Open web panel / Assistant / Unlink this PC / Link this PC again / Share Live view with support (24 h) | Web Panel buttons. |
| Share this config... / Browse community configs | Community configs, AI and Console only. Browse opens Marketplace → Configs. |
#Center view
| Control | What it does |
|---|---|
| Config list | Lists profiles in the authenticated edition's config folder. Double-clicking activates a profile. |
| Summary | Shows Name, Edition, total setting count, and modified time derived from the selected file. |
| Set Active / Active | Activates the selected profile or shows that it is already active. |
| Rename | Renames the selected profile and updates references. |
| Duplicate | Creates a copy. |
| Delete | Removes an inactive profile after confirmation. |
| Open Folder | Opens the selected profile's config folder. |
#Input Device
Selects the output hardware and its device-specific controls. Output device and COM-port changes should be applied with Stop Moonlight → Start Moonlight.
#Output Device
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Output | Selects Cronus Zen (Xbox Only), Ferrum, Ferrum Controller, KMBox, MAKCU, Makcu Controller, MAKXD, Medius, Moonlink Direct, PS5 Remote Play or Titan Two. Color has no PS5 Remote Play. Console offers Titan Two, Cronus Zen (Xbox Only), Makcu Controller, Ferrum Controller and PS5 Remote Play. |
| COM Port | Conditional: KMBox, Ferrum or Ferrum Controller. Selects the connected hardware port. MAKCU-class and other controller paths use their own discovery. |
| MAKCU API | Conditional: MAKCU. Legacy API (old firmware) or New API (bare-metal firmware). Default Legacy API. Must match the firmware. |
| Device tuning | Conditional: MAKCU on New API, MAKXD, Makcu Controller. Opens MAK Device Tuning: Read, Apply live, Save to Device, presets, import/export of the device's own settings. |
| Log MAKCU Health | Conditional: Makcu Controller. Queries the firmware health snapshot and writes it to Logs. |
| Medius live status | Conditional: Medius. Read-only device status. |
| Aim Axis | Every output device; global. Both Axes (Normal) (default), Horizontal Only (X) or Vertical Only (Y): zeroes one axis in software before movement reaches the device, so aim and flick move only horizontally or only vertically. Recoil control (RCS) always keeps both axes. |
Medius: the device always renders the movement, including your own physical mouse movement. There are no renderer settings. Moonlight's humanizer still plans the path (Strength, Tracking Pauses, Prefix Strength on the Aim and Flick pages).
The legacy Moonlink choice is globally hidden and superseded by Moonlink Direct. The shipped runtime requires Native Serial for the supported serial devices.
#Keyboard device
Shown for every mouse device; hidden for Titan Two, Makcu Controller, Ferrum Controller and PS5 Remote Play.
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Keyboard device | Same as mouse device (default), Ferrum (Ferrum App port), MAKCU (New API firmware), MAKXD or Medius: the device that presses keys, blocks keys and reports held keys for plugins and Predictor V2. |
| Keyboard COM Port | Shown when Keyboard device is not Same as mouse device. Must differ from the mouse device's port. |
| Refresh | Re-scans serial ports. |
| Test (types F) | Sends a simple keyboard-output test. |
Counter-strafe and auto-stop are now the Counter-Strafe & Auto-Stop plugin, set per weapon class in Plugins → Library.
#Controller Setup (Titan Two)

| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Console Output | Selects Auto, PS4, PS5, Xbox 360, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, or HID output. |
| Controller | Selects the attached controller family. |
| Edge Fix | Applies edge handling for stick output. |
| Disable Joystick HID | Prevents the extra joystick HID path from conflicting with the intended output. |
| X Scale / Y Scale | Scales solved stick output by axis. 0.10–3.00x, default 1.00. |
| Ramp In | Blends injected output in over time. 0–500 ms, default 12. |
| Release | Blends it out when assistance ends. 0–500 ms, default 24. |
| Output Interval | Controls synchronous send interval. 0.5–8 ms, default 2.0; unavailable while Async 1 kHz Output is on. |
| Async 1 kHz Output | Re-sends the latest solved state on the high-rate native output worker. |
| Trigger Threshold | Sets the physical trigger threshold used as a firing state. 1–99%, default 30. |
| Recoil Scale | Scales controller recoil output. 0.10–3.00x, default 1.00. |
| Override Deadzone | Physical-stick magnitude required to begin override. 0–99%, default 18. |
| Override Takeover | Fade rate from Moonlight output to physical input. 0–1000 ms, default 40. |
| Override Return | Fade rate back to Moonlight output. 0–1000 ms, default 150. |
| Physical Stick Override | Enables the physical-stick takeover behavior. On by default. |
| Invert Y Output | Inverts vertical injected stick output. |
| Controller Diagnostics | Shows connection, input, output, HID, and Aim-rate status. |
| Test X / Test Y / Neutral | Sends bounded axis tests or immediately returns output to neutral. |
The generic Titan receiver is managed by the client. Legacy Script Mode and Packet Format controls are hidden and should not be used as setup steps.
#Controller Setup
Shown for Makcu Controller, Ferrum Controller and Cronus Zen (Xbox Only).
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Controller layout | Xbox 360 (default), Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PS3, PS4, PS5. Sets the button names for Aim, Flick, Trigger and ADS binds; does not change firmware or console output. |
#Input Masking
Shown for KMBox, MAKCU, MAKXD, Medius and Ferrum.
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Mouse 1 / Mouse 2 / Mouse 4 / Mouse 5 | Blocks the selected physical button from passing through while the configured condition is active. Mouse 4 and Mouse 5 are on by default, Mouse 1 and Mouse 2 off. |
| M1 Block Threshold | Conditional: Mouse 1 masking. Releases M1 masking when the crosshair is sufficiently close to the target. 0–100% of box width, default 25%. |
| Masked Click-Through (M2) | Conditional: Ferrum, Medius, MAKCU, MAKXD. Right-click stays masked; short taps send a click after release, held presses stay blocked. Locks Mouse 2 masking on while enabled. |
| Maximum tap duration | Conditional: Masked Click-Through. 1–1000 ms, default 180. |
| Click duration | Conditional: Masked Click-Through. Range 1–250 ms, default 35–65 ms. |
#MAKCU Hardware Humanization (Bezier)
Conditional: MAKCU with MAKCU API set to Legacy API. Mode, Curve type, Segments and control points are per weapon class and apply to both Aim and Flick.
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Enable MAKCU Bezier humanization | Uses the device's hardware curve rendering. |
| Mode | Selects Traditional or MAKU Hardware Humanization. |
| Curve type | Selects Quadratic Inward, Quadratic Outward, Cubic Inward, or Cubic Outward. |
| Segments | Sets curve segmentation. 2–64, default 8. |
| Control points | Adjusts the curve geometry for the selected type. -100 to 100, default 5. |
#Sensitivity / Look Scaling
Hidden in Console edition. Global.
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| DPI Value | Your mouse's DPI, 100–16000, default 800. It does not change aim, flick or recoil strength: Physical Control Assist uses it to measure how fast your hand moves, and the humanizer keeps a separate learned profile for each device and DPI, so changing it switches to that DPI's profile. |
| Game Sens / Look Sens | Your in-game (look) sensitivity, 0.01–10.00, default 0.70. Every mouse output (aim, flick, recoil and plugins) is scaled by it, so enter the exact value from your game. Controller outputs do not use it. |
| Game FOV | Your in-game horizontal field of view in degrees, 60–130, default 103. It scales mouse output together with Game Sens, and it also scales the size of the Aim and Flick FOV circles. |
The former Reference Sensitivity and visual tracking-calibration workflow are withdrawn from the production UI.
Trigger Polling is on the Trigger page and RCS Pull Rate (formerly RCS Delay) is in Recoil Control → Timing.
Sens Multiplier is replaced: use Aim Multiplier on the Aim page and Flick Multiplier on the Flick page.
Legacy Physical Input Lock/Fusion and Anti-Flick Speed Cap are not current cards. Restricted Tracking on Aim and Flick replaces that competing physical-control path.
#ML Mouse
Personal mouse training is retired. The ML Mouse page is hidden in every edition, so there is nothing to record or train: the humanizer on Aim, Flick and RCS uses its built-in movement profile.
#Plugins
Available in AI and Console editions. Plugin enablement and plugin settings are stored per class.
#Library
| Control | What it does |
|---|---|
| Reload All | Reloads local and available runtime plugins. |
| Open Folder | Opens the local Lua plugin folder. |
| Search plugins | Filters the plugin list. |
| Plugin list checkboxes | Enables or disables each plugin for the active weapon class. |
| Plugin details | Shows type, hooks, capabilities, permissions, and errors. |
| Aim Provider | In the collapsed Live Diagnostics card. Shows the plugin currently supplying Script aim output. |
| Plugin Output | In the collapsed Live Diagnostics card. Displays values published by a plugin through its monitor hook. |
Plugin settings are edited only on the plugin's Active Plugins page, not in Library. Marketplace plugins are run-only and held in memory; they cannot be edited in Code Editor or Designer.
#Active Plugins
Each enabled plugin receives a sidebar page with:
- Status, type, active hooks, and last error.
- Schema-generated plugin controls.
- Disable Plugin for the active weapon class.
Plugin controls can be on/off switches, choice lists, whole-number and decimal sliders (0–100 unless the plugin sets a range), text, file pickers (Browse... copies the file into the plugin's folder), color pickers, and read-only charts and labels. Changes are applied through the running plugin manager.
#Code Editor
The Code Editor is a full center-pane Lua authoring workspace.
| Control | What it does |
|---|---|
| Template | Selects a blank aim plugin or an existing example as the starting point. |
| New | Creates a plugin from the selected template. |
| Save | Validates, saves, and hot-reloads the plugin into Library. |

#Recommended setup order
- Select or create a profile on Configs.
- Choose the correct Input Device and COM port, then restart Moonlight if the connection changed.
- Configure Capture, confirm the center preview, and calibrate the crosshair center if required.
- Select a compatible model and backend on Detection, or configure Color in Color edition.
- Create weapon classes under Game Profiles → Calibration. (Optional)
- Configure Aim, Flick, Trigger, and Recoil Control for each class. (Optional)
- Tune Prediction only after base tracking is stable. (Optional)
- Choose at most one automatic weapon-class method: OCR, Template Match, or AI Weapon. (Optional)
- Use ML Mouse to record and train a personal movement profile if desired. (Optional)
- Enable diagnostic telemetry only while troubleshooting, then review Monitor and Logs.
Change one subsystem at a time and duplicate a known-good config before large tuning sessions.
