New Mousewheel Functionality
« on: April 09, 2007, 11:43:52 AM »
Since I am now seeing mice with the ability to move the mouse wheel left and right, how about adding that functionality to DP?

The most immediate use I could see for this is switching weapon sides from left to right and back.

Just a thought.

Unfortunately I don't have a mouse with side scrolling functionality, but throw it in the feature vote thread if you haven't already and I'll see what I can do if there's enough interest.

That's not a bad idea except that I can barely play when I have a gun on the screen now. I don't think most people would want to have the gun showing.

My fault. I was thinking it would switch the gun from right to left.

That'd be kinda cool if you could see it. That would take a while to do though.

I would vote for this function definately, and i would definately use it for hand switches so i can use the wheel for something more productive
