DCS has always been "feature rich". Lionel has not been able to reproduce all of the DCS options. However I rarely use many of the DCS features. Mostly because I cant remember them.
I need to control engine movement, sound, lights and coupling. Not much else. Doppler effects and clickety clacks real neat but rarely employed.
My point, do we really need 80 or 90 percent of what DCS HAS?
