Title: Alternate Controls
Post by: Nitronic755 on August 22, 2006, 12:27:53 AM: I don't know if this has been mentioned, or if it's even in DSL TC V1, and if it is I take no credit. But I reckon there should be two sets of controls, that you could switch between when you press a key. This would mean that any invertable robot that suffers from reverse steering and accel/decel could simply switch controls without having to use different keys. Very handy if you use the arrow keys like me!

If you want alt controls just switch to a a diffrent ketset also its not like you dont have the room for the extra controls. I mean come on does anyone use all 9 spots. Honestly is using diffrent keys all that hard tho. I just learned to drive inverted so i dont even bother with diffrent controls. Its to late to add it anyways. Sorry if it seems harsh but I just dont see the need.

Besides I don't think what you're suggesting is possible.
