clarry: You can use a turret, but once you do, you can't get *out* of a turret if another key is bound to the hard-coded turret-use key. (Unless you have taken damage and the option to heal yourself comes up -- healing takes you out of the gun).

I wish I could see what the process is that causes a thing like that to happen in the first place.

If I'm writing a game, keybindings are always going through a translation map. It wouldn't even occur to me to somehow make a hardcoded binding for some specific thing in the game, and it would require me to go out of my way to work around the *normal* way input is handled. So what do they do wrong? First implement hard-coded console controls, then hope that the sorry-ass company that gets hired to make the PC port doesn't miss it? I can't think of much else.
