Hi Tom.
while mouse support would be funky in many games, ---- judgement day, rale
racer, not to mention Che's fighting idea (I was a big fan of Brian's
attempt at the magic gestures game), my personal view is that it wouldn't
really do much in motor, sinse mota is a side scrolling platform game not
based upon complex joystick motions, or the sort of realistic throttle esque
timing seen in a racing or shooting game.
Mota's challenge is much more about where you go, and how you time fighting
monsters.
Of course, sinse I grew up, ---- and indeed stil do, play graphical side
scrollers with either the pc keyboard or (as I always prefer if possible),
my mighty arcade joysticks, I'm probably rather biased here, but imho mouse
support just wouldn't add to the game at all.
of course though, if you ever create that solo starship control game, ----
not to mention raceway, Mouse support would probably be fun.
Just my thoughts.
Beware the Grue!
Dark.

Subject: [Audyssey] MOTA Mouse Support
Hello everyone,
Ok, got a question for you Mysteries of the Ancients fans regarding mouse
support. I've been trying for the passed couple of months to get the mouse
working properly in the game, and still haven't been able to get total
error free support. At this point you can use the mouse to run, walk, and
climb which is fine. However, if you pres the left mouse button down to
jump or the right button to fire the game window loses focus and you end
up clicking something on your desktop. Definitely not cool. It is because
of that reason mouse support has been turned off in the last three public
betas. So here is the question.
Would you guys be ok with a keyboard mouse combo such as control-mouse
left to jump left, control-mouse right to jump right, etc and I can make a
note not to use the mouse buttons which aren't supported? On the other
hand would you be alright if I just drop mouse support for Mysteries of
the Ancients altogether since the mouse buttons are being a royal pain to
get working on my end of things?
Thanks.
