I wrote a small Windows program to automatically spray shots when I'm in the Emerald Mosque. Is that cheating?

that is the most potent key maping combo i've ever seen! It almost renders the tank invincible. I would highly reccomend that every one utilize such a feature

it is very easy you use tab as jup and q as fire. the two most used buttons(for me anyway) with im finger reach of each other no pun intended

that's very, very odd....... do you use kybd to move?
i use my mouse to move w/ my right hand, then i've set up everything else to be with in reach of my left hand on the kybd.

yeah, well, i think its easier to set the keys to suit yourself rather than using the pre set keys. i just can't see myself using the preset keys...... its soo weird. but then again, i do play other games that i use pretty much the same layout for... so, that could be part of it.

Don't be, I've used 'q' to fire for about 3 years now. Alot of people I know use it.

well using q for fire can be easy if all the things like lock on and jump are around it,just reach with your finger(s)

question: what is so great about using the keypad,does it give more direction control?
i fing that that mouse gives more speed control than the keyboard

i have set my middle mouse to jump, simply for my being able to eat or drink with my left whilst playing with my right.
Games don't make people violent, lag does.

I used middle for jump once when I had injured my left hand and couldn't use it for a while. I prefer it drop flag though.
