[no need] Mouse for left-handers
« on: 17 February 2012, 14:13:21 »
A possibly important feature I think would be the ability to move the mouse to left-handedness can be (approximately 10-15% of the world's population are left handed in younger due to the re-education that no longer exists, probably even up to 50%). That would certainly attract more players.

I can not offer any solution.

All it takes there is an option to switch the left and right mouse key.

Uh, what? Can't you do this on the operating system level? I know Windows and Ubuntu definitely support it, and if your OS can't, it's time to jump ship, then. Such an option on the OS level should affect all programs. There's a reason no program ever gives such an option itself.

I wrote to ask for a friend of mine, he uses KDE as the GUI and work there, despite conversion to left-handedness, right-handed Megaglest only. Is therefore probably a KDE bug. I tried it with XFCE and there Megaglest worked with left-handed mouse setting. Ok, then this feature is of course redundant. Sorry. Thank you Omega.
