Shuttle cockpit with good old-fashioned steam gauges
« on: February 02, 2008, 02:24:23 PM »
Hi, guys!!

I wanted to ask you, what happened to the good old-fashioned steam gauges like the altitude tape, analog HSI, and analog ADI and so forth in the space shuttle cockpit when using STS-1 in SSM2007?? Do you guys know when there will be good old-fashioned steam gauges in SSM? Maybe SSM2009?

Try a search, am sure this has been discussed before. I think it was decided to stick to one layout.

Yep, that's what I read too.  The devs said somewhere on here that they decided to model the updated cockpit instead of incorperating different setups.  Just to simplify the programing.  They may add them in a future release or something like that, I think.  Not sure...
