Description
The terminal, just one of those things synonymous with Fallout itself. This was a particularly challenging concept for two things: Make our own computer terminal that is sufficiently different enough from the original yet still recognizable, and have it work conceptually with pony hooves.ยThe second challenge is the biggest problem, just how would a pony type? You could not supersize a regular Qwerty keyboard otherwise it'll just be the size of a room in length. As it turns out the solution was kind of already available: Mobile Phones and ATM's. For our terminal, and in fact all keyboards in Equestria, letters are grouped in keys, with special function keys and a shift key. A trackball was also added as this served the function of a mouse. The keys themselves are sufficiently large enough that one could type with the edge of the hoof or lay it flat on the trackball to navigate.ย

Glad ppl like it. And yeh the trackball I quite like and glad it occured to me given a mouse would not make a lot of sense.

Speaking from historickly perspektive, trackballs and light-pens are earliests examples of such devices. So, in retro-futurism setting of Fallout, trackball is macking great sense.//as your can guess, english are not my native language 8)

*Imagining an earth pony typing at supersonic speeds with one hoof while a unicorn stares dumbfounded*
