Updated for 2.0!
Since they removed the map view (opening the map now puts you in the remote controller), cutscenes can no longer be started with the map open. At the moment, there's not much I can do about that, but I've put in an API request to the devs. For now, you can still compose the cutscene while in map view, use it to save it to console history, and then return to the character and run it again. This also means your character needs to physically be on the planet you're creating the cutscene for.
