Anyway the whole PC interface is pretty much a mess due to consolitis, a shame because this is a remarkably brilliant game and a whole pile of fun even with the warts.
I’m thinking this would make life a lot easier.

I use a Logitec wireless keyboard and trackball (I finally quit fighting the trackball thing and would never go back to a mouse willingly) I’d be giving up the wireless but oh well. Seems a better solution for me.
I suppose you could set it between mouse and keyboard and have controls on the right but it’s a pretty brute force solution for 4 keys.
What about one of those simple numberpad keyboard extender things that Staples or any computer place has? they have them in straight line as well. Could tuck one below the real arrow keys.
