I love this game. It seems that in FS:SDOE it's always a clear, beautiful day while in EAW its always overcast. Is there any chance that FS:SDOE can be modified to accept inputs from two USB controllers? I have the CH Products flight yoke USB & Pro Pedals USB. I've gotten used to the precision and ergonomics so it's hard to go back to gameport or all-in-one USB controllers where you have to twist the joystick for rudder action.

P.S. CH Products is trying to solve the incompatibility problem on their end with a "unified driver" that acts like a single USB controller. That approach must be hard, however, because their driver is still not finished.

Apparently there is very little coding required from games developers to enable multi-USB support in games. Until they get THAT act together we'll be stuck with twist-grip rudders and on-the-stick throttles.

I think there is some documentation out for the keyboard.inp file. I don't think that there is support for multiple joysticks in it yet. It would be nice if there was .
