In terms of both immersion and ergonomics mouse clickable cockpits (particularly in 3D cockpits) can sometimes leave something to be desired...where bindable keystroke combinations or other input devices can sometimes be prefered.

I think it would have been better to have phrased the question in terms of would you like to see realistically modelled flight, engine, fuel and systems management in this Combat Flight Simulation or would your rather see grossly homogonized and simplified systems implemented?

That way those who want to see the BOB-SOW as yet another Sim Lite at least have to say so...rather than hide behind the smokescreen of saying using a mouse isn't an effective input device.

Great post! and I agree most responders are stuck on the word "clickable"...the wording of the poll question could have been better. Or maybe most IL-2 pilots only care for the furball aspect. A shame considering what those pilot's had to learn and master back then, I want that challenge, I want to plan, feel, and execute proper aircraft management decishions
