from a purely visual point of view I love seeing pilots through windows in space sims..very few have done it due to the fact when Space Sims where popular transparency was a big thing in graphics.
Esp in the big ships..one thing I jumped for joy over with SC is that you could see into the windows of the big carriers.
I also wonder about monitor display..surely some new glass type material would be used..as relying on tech just to be able to see out is a risky venture and one Pilots would be woe to try out during testing phase. Hmm..rather had windows myself..see pilots at the stick..see pilots freezing to death..see pilots dead at the controls..immersion. Pilots could have personalized helmets etc..so you recognize the flight leader.
I was alittle disappointed over the monitor idea..the only thing though.
I always wish you could see the pilots in Mechs aswell different game though:).

Some nice ideas about the monitors--I'll keep them in mind... One final video in this series--this one cover landing and basic ship shutdown https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFKREQnKvpsThanks to SimHQ and the community here for all the support over the last few weeks!

Indeed, yes The website was updated (mainly so I could maintain it myself rather than having to rely on someone else). The forums have also been cleaned up. There is a new "News" section for DCI news, and I have a Developer Journal thread started on the forums for RogSys related updates. Also, there is an RSS feed. www.roguesystemsim.comMainly, right now I'm working towards a public pre-Alpha that I can release for those who contribute to development. I'll have some news on this at the website this weekend. There's a few prerequisites that have to be met before the pre-Alpha test version can be released. You can read about this in the dev journal, but mainly I've spent the last couple of weeks doing a revision to some of the "foundation" code--mainly just improvements in efficiency based on a recent code review I did. Since a lot of this is pretty fundamental stuff I wanted to do it now before beginning to layer on anything new. Once finished (should be done this weekend), I'll begin coding the first pass of the final implementation of ship systems. For example, the full electrical system has been fully designed--offering many possibilities for not only various power loss, but also many ways to reroute power to stay in the fight...
