Good point there, that's true. Also, a third mouse button for a trackpad would be nice. What I did to solve that was to completely reconfigure the key assignments. Forward = up, backward = dwn, step left and right are alt left and right, just like in quake. Shoot is space bar, silence radars is s. Short range radars are control plus rrow, long range is still shift plus arrows. Nav prompt is f, vocal prompt is alt v. (By the way, I now have to straif left and right to get the yes sir/no sir prompt instead of hitting a and d, but oh well.) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dakotah Rickard" <[email protected]>

I've used two different track pads, and I've used the cheapest of
cheap mice. My only complaint so far about track pads is that
sometimes they don't like for you to run and shoot at the same time.
My netbook let you do that, and I love it, but my new laptop, which
actually runs better on the game, doesn't allow you to run and shoot.
It's caused me more problems than I'd like to count.

As far as the track pad, make sure it's turned on, try to turn
tap-to-click off, and you'll be fine. IF you need specific help with
that, please contact me or your laptop vender or both or ... whatever
you like...

have to turn the sensativity to lowest though, or I turn 360's by one swipe

Maybe Shaun's onto something. My comparrison was probably unfair,
seeing as A) I'm judging a Macbook trackpad with plenty of surface
area and a really nice finish to the touch against the cheapest of
cheapo mice and B) I'm a sucker for not having extra devices whenever
possible. I'd love to give a good gaming mouse a go though.
