It was posted before in this forum, but now I can't find the original post.

I tried all kinds of stuff.

Thanks in advance.

goto options, controls,map controls. be sure your controller is selected the press the button you want to map.

  This should hilite that button in black,then double click and a new window will open,select the subdirectory {global} scroll down to "fire all"

  select and click ok!  this should map "N" {fire all} to what ever button you select.


      hope that helps.

You can also "double-click" the joystick button, if morfiend was referring to using the mouse to double-click the highlighted list item for your selected joystick button.

In short: You don't map the button to a key. The key represents a function. You map the button to that same function.

So you don't map the joystick button to "E", you go in and map it to "start engine" which is what E does. That may mean you have to scroll through the options to find the function you want.

 I was referring to the mouse but yes both ways work much the same.  I'd forgot that double tapping the button opens the control window so thx for reminding me!
