How hard would it be to add an option in the game we can turn on that will enable debug type output or even serial output that we could listen for then tie it to our simpit hardware like a rumble seat or even hydraulic or linear actuators to move the simpit around to simulate walking or taking damage? I imagine building a simpit similar to this but with a fully enclosed cockpit with lights and working switches for all the keyboard commands like night vision and chain fire, etc.
It would be awesome to have the feedback from the actual game functions that draw the up/down motion when walking so we could have an arduino or something attached to the serial output or similar to have the cockpit shake a little each time the mech drops on a footstep. Then of course shake it a whole bunch depending on how heavy of a hit you are taking vs missiles, bullets, or lasers.
