Im not sure about where to post this but, I'm thinking about building a set of dials (which would use outgauge to work) and I'm trying to decide:

1. If the clock should be analog or digital
2. If I should bother with the clock


The clock wouldn't use outgauge (mainly because theres no point, I can just use my systems time like LFS does anyway) but would a digital clock look better or worse than an analog one?

Why not simply stick a real, normal clock up there?

But i need a clock because I play LFS all the time (including right up to before i leave for work) so I gotta know what the time is so I dont get fired :nod:

I'm going to use a real clock (theres no point in writing a clock in python and then using a usb PCB to control some servos just for a clock lol).

For digital I would just rip apart a small LED clock, for analog, a small alarm clock or something.

If you drive with cockpit view there is already a clock on the dash :) it should display your local time :)
