I have a really weird issue with the first Postal. If I'm trying to use the joystick or keyboard, I can usually only turn left only one step - I can't hold the key/controller down to spin around. Strafing works correctly, as does turning right. He turns around just fine with the mouse, but strafing doesn't work right with the mouse.

Awwww... I'm afraid, nothing's perfect in this world... I hope there will be a fix eventually... I don't like mouse control :(.

We are working on that. For now I can say that when I check it today turning left works in Add-On - you just need to change key settings once. though like I sad it works only for add on (special edition levels).

So if I rebind left turn key it will works?
Checked, it didn't help - no matter to what key I assign left turn it doesn't work as it should do.

It does work in the Add-on... until I reach the % of hostiles I need to eliminate. Then my left turning becomes slower and the right turning impossibly fast. Such a strange issue...

We're really sorry you feel this way. It is our oversight that we haven't posted this issue in the "Known issues" knowledge base. The issue is a development bug that cannot be easily fixed by our programmers as we don't have the source code. Although as Skreczi posted earlier we're working on that and we hope a fix, that will satisfy everyone here, should be available soon.
Thanks for understanding and I hope you won't encounter any problems with GOG games in the future.

At least you are trying to come with some sort of fix oh and by the way are you working of fixing the in game music of Seven Kingdoms 2? it's not included in the GOG install according to the people who bought it.

What about the RWS guys? They don't have the source either?

Probably the problem is that GOG buying it bought only right to resell, not the right to get source code - but I might be wrong.

But they can ask developers for a patch, right? (not that they are obliged to create one, of course, but it must be in their best interests to do so)

Sure they can ask but as I said I wouldn't be so sure will they get it.
Anyway all we can do is to wait.

Asking RWS was the first thing we did. Unfortunately even on RWS forum this problem is mentioned as unfixable and Postal team member wrote that it "has no fix, only way around it is to play with the mouse"
That's why we are trying to fix it by ourself. And as boys wrote- we will let you know asap.
