There are lot of gauges. Do they all contain useful information?

[Gotmilk]

I see lots of gauges. I dont know what most of them do but some are moving randomly up and down and others dont move at all. Are this gauses valid or are they just textures and dont really mean anything. I mean watch the torpedo station computer all the instruments are staying still. Even if i lock on a ship the instruments are still in one place.

And is there a way to make a mod to make all this information to move. SH4 has pretty interior but sadly you cannot do much inside of it. I would like to push every button i see :)

i've played a bit with SH3 and compared with 4, 3s guages seem to largely be more interactive/clickable
