I have a CH fighter stick USB, CH Pro Throttle USB, and CH Pro Pedals USB. The demo seems to only allow 1 joystick which really puts a damper on flight control for me. A game can be very good but if the controls/input methods are not configurable enough for users it would be a shame. Anyone know if they plan to add the feature to handle multiple joysticks during gameplay? I have multiple joysticks that I use for flight/space sims.

It's a great port, and a great game. The learning curve is a bit high on this one, but the replayability is unmatched by other Linux games. The universe is huge, and there are a multitude of things to do in this game. I ran the beta on an Althon XP 2400+ with a Geforce 5900XT and 512 MB of RAM in *maximum detail* at 1024x768.

In spite of the fact that the game is easily one of the most beautiful games to grace Linux, I'd say that LGP managed to squeeze a lot out of this code. From what I've read about the Windows version, this port may even be better optimized than the Windows release. Congrats to lgp-michael, dolphin, and everyone else that cranked this release out. Mine is on the way in the mail right now! I hope that everyone else considers ordering it as well. I was delighted to be part of this beta test. It’s a great port, and a great game.
