I have passed the sim check a week ago, you don't have to worry about keeping the ball centered, its now a multiengine sim. So as long as you keep your power synchronised you won't have any trouble with the ball or climb performance. What they expect you to do is: Normal TO (without SID) , turns to a heading, then you are cleared to the VOR for a full ILS approach. Then Go around , an intercept (can be vor radial or qdm) then to the NDB for a full ndb approach with a landing.
It is a twinengine and the power settings and speeds are on the checklists, but I have remembered some speeds like:

Vr 80 kts
Vclimb 90 kts
Vapp 90 kts
Vle 130 kts
Vfe (flaps 10) 115 kts (not sure about this one)

Power settings:
TO 40" 2500 RPM
Climb 40" 2300
Cruise 30" 2300 RPM

You will be called to the room 15 min. in advance, then they will give you the checklist and the approach plate of the field (usually Graz or Linz). Don't expect to "fly the stars from the sky" (sorry about this Dutchism) because the sim is very unstable in its pitch attitude, but don't worry too much about that, they only want to know, that yóu know what you are doing. And like the other guy mentioned, think aloud, so they know what you are thinking.

Good luck
