- ONE WORD ABOUT THE MOUSE POINTER
- ================================
- Since this is a mouse-controlled two player game, I had to find a way to give
- both players a chance to move the mouse pointer (one after the other, of
- course). Since fewest Amiga users have got two mice, I decided to have player
- 1 take the mouse and to have player 2 take a joystick. After player 1 has
- finished his move, the mouse will be switched off internally and player 2's
- joystick will become the new "mouse mover". So don't panic if the system seems
- to have crashed (a motionless mouse pointer IS a frightening thing, I admit);
- just give your joystick a little nudge and watch the pointer float majestically
- over the screen (I'm getting carried away with this, sorry). The joystick's
- fire button will act just like the mouse's select button (the left one, okay?).
- Unfortunately, joysticks don't have menu buttons yet, so if you really have to
- make a menu selection while the joystick is controlling the pointer, you have
- to depress RIGHT-Alt-RIGHT-AMIGA to simulate the menu button.
- If you don't like the JoyMouse's speed, you can change it by selecting "Set
- JoyMouse Speed" (Special Menu), keyboard shortcut AMIGA-J. And if you don't
- like the idea of mouse/joystick swapping, you can turn the whole thing off by
- selecting "JoyMouse Off" (also Special Menu).
