Isn't it fair to demand that if people want to use the more advanced input features that they pay a little extra? I really feel as though I am giving away too much, since people can use the engine completely free of charge for open source games. One compromize might be to allow mouse and joystick support in lite and pro, but not in the demo. Any thoughts?

One thing we are seriously lacking in accessible games is decent quality support for joysticks, racing wheels, gamepads, mice, etc. I just feel these features should be included along side keyboard support. As for pathfinding perhaps make that a pro feature. After all, it is a more advanced feature of the engine and could reasonably considered a Pro option. That's how I'd view it if I were in your position. Cheers! On 2/3/11, Philip Bennefall <phi...@blastbay.com> wrote: > Hi there, > > I am not sure.
