Hi Jim, I am having a couple of keyboard issues with Puppy1 i would like to ask you about. Perhaps you can address them in a future update of the game. the first one is about the menus. While in the menus pressing down arrow or up arrow scrolls too rapidly. Instead of moving to the next item it will often scroll 2 or 3 menu choices at a time. I believe you mentioned before you have switched to DirectInput for keyboard handling. In that case the menu keyboard input for the menus should be looking for keyboard releases and not key presses. If youcheck for a key release rather than a key press in menus the menu item won't scroll to the next item until the up or down arrow is released. The second one is just a laptop vs desktop keyboard layout issue. As the game currently exists you need to shoot with the left control key and fire with the right control key. that is fine for desktops and laptops with a full sized keyboard, but not all laptops come with two control keys. I have owned two laptops with a left control key only, and in that case the gamer could fire but not get information on enemy positions. Perhaps you could add an extra information key to the game to address this issue with laptops? Cheers.
