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!

First of all it would be to hard to do. Second of all there not realy the need. 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.

I made a bot once in stock RA2 that used all 9 control spots. But yeah, it's not often you need that many.

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

You could do it but like a lot of things people request it would require programing it into the existing game.
