Sorry know this topic is a bit old, but what about the use case of simulating an opponent that is using drones for observation and fires spotting? I have some mission ideas where the opposition has UAV's up to observe and call fires on the players, but right now I would have to join the red team and do all of that myself. When playing against the AI in a coop mission, there's no way to have an actual man in the loop on the enemy side. I can fake it by having red UAV's fly over fire missions I set up myself to trigger when players go to certain areas, but it would be cool if the AI could do this on their own.

I guess if we're looking for more opinions on this issue I'll throw mine in. I've made SB missions off and on for a few years now for a friend group and some of the most fun I've had is using the RCL techie and its janky hand cranks. However, its always a tough sell to my friends to get them to play vehicles with manual traverse due to nobody liking to mash the arrow keys. I think we would have had even more fun blasting T-55s and running for the hills if there was a mouse/joystick control option for the RCL techies. As Apocalypse said, I think we still would have had plenty of panicky good times if mouse controls were an option as long as the traverse was still realistically slow. Everything is a compromise, and in my opinion mouse controls would better replicate the effect of a real crew using hand cranks for those that don't have the real things. Edit: Misread the dates on this topic as being from January of this year. Still, happy to add my opinion even if the thread is old.
