This all stems back to the "Braze Multi Game" add on from page one. The original board sets lack the analog to digital hardware needed for a thruster on the multigame. Now, Lunar Lander is completely playable out of the box using the buttons on the control panel. BUT, the add on board has a spot for a 10pin header that allows you to plug in what is needed for the analog to 8bit binary conversion that the multigame can use. The thruster on Lunar Lander originally used a 5K potentiometer, so in my little box I'm using a 5k slider pot, yes the real thruster would be cool, but nah I just want analog control of the thrust to get a fair shot at playing the game and not going broke and destroying my panel.
