if i could qualify the above answer, there is a method of getting the information for gauges etc out of the sim-see:-

however there is no script written by community (yet?) to actually output this data to 'gauges'.This feature may(or may not
) be finished off by the devs- i'd love to see it and i doubt i'm alone.
in the old IL2 this was done using 'devicelink' (tho some functions only worked offline)
