The copy of DW I bought arrived today. There is only one problem with this. I have the game in hand however, it and my butt are still at work.

I do have a question for the community. I enjoy flight sims and MS Flight Simulator uses separate windows for each instrument/gauge. This allows various instruments to be arranged on multiple displays. There are some great cockpit rigs built by players due to this multi display capability. If anyone needs pictures there are tons on mycockpit.org. There are usb interface boards by Leo Bodnar which essentially let you build your own controller. Keys can then be mapped to switches, buttons, toggles, etc...via the usb interface board. Is a setup like this possible with DW? It could be quite fun to build a home control room instead of a cockpit.

Al the controls etc are part of the main screen, not separate windows in their own right so this would not be possible. DW was made in 2005 before multiple screens were really a "thing".

Thank you for the reply. I had a feeling that was the answer but had to ask.
