 My solution to playing Tron with a real Tron joystick though was to buy a Tron :)

There you have it!

I think that if you have a main panel that handles the vast majority of your needs you can be pretty good with that.  Then any specific controls you want such as tron, rotary joystick, etc you can just build a 2nd panel and swap the whole thing.

This is essentially what I'm doing.  The already-built Frankenpanel is a 95% solution... I'll also build a second swappable panel for the Star Wars yoke eventually.  Still trying to figure out where to put a USB steering wheel setup I bought years ago...

That's what i'm going to shoot for. Maybe a main 4 player w trackball cp, and an extra cp for tron, maybe a rotary, and maybe a SW yoke. The latter would be the frankenpanel that would be rarely used.

Just cause it has a tron stick doesn't mean it's a frankenpanel!!!  :angry: :angry: :angry:

If you can do it tastefully, it's not a frankenpanel. Check out this panel:


See what I mean? Tasteful is the key.
