Re: [Audyssey] Swamp with a trackpad.
Thanks for catching the tap to click. That was my major issue with the game, and in hindsight I really should have remembered it, heh. My personal solution was to open the right-click menu for my mouse's system tray icon, and there was an option for tap-to-click. I'm not sure if this is universal, but it might be worth a try. - Original Message - From: Dakotah Rickard dakotah.rick...@gmail.com To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Date sent: Thu, 18 Apr 2013 12:18:55 -0400 Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Swamp with a trackpad. Ok. Let's just step back a bit and work from the beginning. You are firing your gun when you don't mean to because of a setting called tap to click. This is a very common, almost universal setting on a touchpad. Your touch pad will be unique to itself, because manufacturers love not integrating their settings into a defacto settings sheme like Control Panel, though maye you can find out something about tap to click in your Mouse settings area.

I play with my sensitivity all the way up or on the next setting, depending on which character I'm on at the time, but that's not for everyone. Also, make sure your screen orientation is proper. I found out the hard way that if my screen orientation is sideways or whatever, Swamp doesn't work right in terms of mouse movements. I play exclusively with the track pad, to the point that I have tried using a mouse and failed epically. It's convenient to the keyboard, and it feels rather natural to me. plus, I started out on a touchpad, and that's all I've really used. I've heard good and bad things about the use of a track pad, but I'm a firm believer that it can work quite well. If there's anything else I can help you with, please let me know.

Re: [Audyssey] Swamp with a trackpad.
Glad I could help. I hated tap to click in Swamp. I mean, in other programs, it's pretty useful, but it screws up Swamp big time.

I know a few people who would've gotten the Mac to play with the trackpad, but I personally like a USB mouse. And also would be my suggestion.

Re: [Audyssey] Swamp with a trackpad.
hi, it could be that you have your sensitivity set to high. try changing it, within swamps menu. sometimes, different laptops trackpads work differently, and they are more or less sensitive to motion. see if it helps any. regards dallas On 17/04/2013, Lindsay Cowell lindsay_cow...@btinternet.com wrote: Hi all, Does anyone know how I can use a laptop trackpad with swamp?
