Thanks. It was a nice little session on what all that fighter is capable of doing. Learned a bit and thought about things a bit.

Cool, how do you mean? In relation to moving parts?

On a technical level, yeah. I can't quite do this, but I can fake it by doing this. And then on an immersive level it's wondering what all these buttons actually do. Especially the side buttons and switches. All the key stuff - weapon selection, power (engine, shields, weapons) management, and whatnot all occupy the front for easy access and immediate use, but then there are those things off to the side that just seemingly sit there either to visually look cool and busy and/or have the pilots look cool and busy.

Oh yeah, there's definitely plenty of buttons. I imagine most of the light up buttons to be power management or activation of specific systems switches, while the more keyboard like buttons might be used for more complex operations, like inputting co-ordinates and calculations for lightspeed jumps etc. And obviously on the control yokes themselves primary and secondary weapons systems triggers, and weapon selection switches. Yeah, definitely a lot of buttons to press. ;P

These are things you often don't think about when watching a film or playing a game, but when it comes to something like this, it's something you start to think about.

It also works a bit even for Imperial Iden. The Imperial outfit generates Imperial attention, and depending on the situation, some Imperial fighter isn't available or the best ride to use. Heck, this could follow up on a previous image where that's a getaway ride.

Heh, I thought that is what this was.

It also works well as a standalone scenario, too.

Assuming I had everything I needed, I'd probably drive myself nuts trying to depict an entire action-packed escape, complete with boom-booms and pew-pews. lol

Heh, I'd be up for seeing that. Just gotta get around to finishing off that hangar so you have somewhere to land it.
