Dave,
If Im at a friends house, I will be there showing its functionality - and playing along.
Modular is more complex for people to grasp... and to deal with.
Modular also means that anytime you want to play a very different game, you have a
lot of work to do to swap everything just right. I dont want to spend my time swapping
controls... Id rather play anything I want 'on the fly' .
And finally, If Ive laid it out as good as I think.. there will not be anything 'in the way'.
samshaw946,
As for Complexity, its not really complex at all. I dont have to make it look great. My friends
arent so anal that they will not tolerate a non-work of art in their homes
The cost of my wooden box and wire will not even come close to the cost of all the controls that
I have in it. In fact, I already have the wood and wire available. I dont need anything but a simple
coat of black for the paint. I wont even need any T-molding. Remember, I said 'Temporary'.
My 'BIG' Complex cab design will be much more work and the cab WILL cost quite a bit due
to the specialized design I have in mind. I dont have the money nor time, and wont for a while... so this
is the best option.
NoOne,
Yes, I thought to myself.. if I can play robotron with the both hands at the same time... maybe playing
a rotary game with the left wont be as bad as I thought. However, I may shift the sticks around anyways.
Two different hand depths wont bother me. Its lack of control that bothers me.. and that really
has no bearing on game control. So long as the distance is not too great as to cause discomfort from
stretching too far... all should be fine.
As for the pinball idea - I didnt realize you meant the short ends.. and that makes a lot of sense

Thanks
for that great Idea
Havok,
Tron sticks may look strange from a top view... However, I wonder if maybe you just see Penis wherever
you look?
