Man, I really want to do a mouse saber demo and see how it sounds/feels, but.. I'm already pressed for Monty and I'll just end up getting distracted.. I'm like the A.D.D. game developer. *grin*

Why not use the number pad for navigational and other commands? 2 and 8 moves backwards and forwards, 4 and 6 turns left and right, 7, 9, 1, and 3 could all be use for position alignment. The zero, decimal, and other keys could be used for other functions, as well as the near-by arrow keys and six-pack. This leaves the left hand in full control of the character, whilst the right hand has the same abilities over saber movement..

Unfortunately, I have allot of commands already assigned to those keys. Brandon Cole wrote: > No no no, just the opposite.
