Hi Nicol, Well, currently in Mysteries of the Ancients the scroll wheel on the mouse is used to climb up/down on a rope, staircase, ladder, whatever. Moving the mouse left/right has Angela walk, and holding one of the buttons while pulling the mouse left/right has her jump, run, etc. This is widely accepted to be a good mouse setup so far, and what we will be sticking with for our game releases.
Cheers!
