    There is an interesting rollercoasters game I've bumped into.

    Planet Coaster
    http://store.steampowered.com/app/493340/

    So, reading into some game descriptions on some sites I saw this:

    "It also gives you telemetry as you test, showing you G’s, speed and all other kinds of info that you will start to understand as you play the game and how it translates to things like, fear, excitement, and nausea."

    Frontier studio are also the guys behind Elite Dangerous which has telemetry output and here is the same engine.

    I'm wondering if there could be a plugin made for motion, that would be great. The game looks really nice, we all know about similar NoLimits, but this one looks much more atmospheric, newer, and easy to create your own rollercoasters. I'm thinking in buying this game and trying to look more into this telemetry output. If nothing, at least my kid and me will have some fun :)

    its interesting to use with VORPX, for VR.. but no telemetry yet. Well... this problem its partial solved, using a joystick plugin, and make some changes !
