I understand that EM uses in-game projection of displays, however I am wondering if there is a way to get those in-game displays to be exported?

Allowing us to export in-game MFDs makes it trivial to do crazy and wonderful stuff like -

It's as simple as putting an MFD button frame over the rect you want to display on. If you're really dedicated, you get a square 7" display and put the button frame on that.

If you are very motivated you can find smaller displays that actually fit the frame.

Also would it be possible to get in-game indicator status events to map to USB events? (for button light output)

I guess I didn't search well enough. The exportable text probably does the job as well as it needs to be. I'll play with that =)

:cool: Most of what you want has already been accomplished by other gamers ... the trick is to find the correct thread-needles* in the forum haystack.
