Pressing harder on the keys should change attitude faster

I want to build rockets by just imagining them.  Then I want them to fly where I want by just imagining it.  Basically, I just want Kerbal Daydream Program.

I invented that years ago. Just close your eyes, play, and pay me $39.99

I was disappointed when no one utilized the pressure sensitive buttons on the dual shock 2. (?)  A great hidden feature that had potential.

I seem to remember plenty did. In Gran Turismo (edit: 4) I could get less than full throttle by being gentle on the button.

Quoting yourself... Wow, @Andem, is this a new low?

A much needed UI fix would rotate my craft more quickly when I press the keyboard keys harder because clearly the situation is quite urgent.

This as well as gamepads that recognise my leaning to the side to mean "go more that way" and PC's that unfreeze when shouted at

Perhaps an accelerometer in the case, so the game aborts when you kick it.

I can already see the first slam-tilt-dock maneuver when that feature comes out.

And mashing 'X' really hard and screaming 'Noooooo Nooooo Noooo' should make your lander upright after you flipped it by fat fingering 'Z' instead of shutting the engines down ....

The obvious solution here is, of course, VR goggles. Many come with 2 handheld controllers that could be used to direct your vessel in the same way the ground handlers at the airport wave those orange sticks around.

To go faster you wave your arms faster... to go really fast you wave your arms and shake them - I mean put your body into it. The motion detectors will intuitively interpret these control cues.

If you need to stop abruptly then you simply fling your body backwards as violently as possible and hope you correctly remembered where the couch is.

Vice Versa

Let me think of the idea by controlling my car only with digital Input.

Only full throttle or full brake and digitally full left or full right.

Driveability would only apply if the Tires would have the right slipping behaviour. could'lly be noisy

Driving games were like that back in the day. Pulse width modulation FTW!

And then Squad could market the game as a physical fitness program... With the way that some of us play this game, we'd be either physically fit or die of a heart attack...

Wait - there's another way of using the throttle & brake? part throttle is for h&t downshifts, surely!
