I did play the Decent shareware back in the day with a joystick and I wanted to go back to that kind of game with Overload.

I had little to no problem playing with Keyboard and mouse, but when I tried playing with a joystick, I ended up accidentally rolling every time I tried to aim at an enemy, ending up both disoriented and dead. Maneuvering wasn't that much easier. I do know that my joystick have a twist function and my old one didn't have one. I also know that rolling is mapped to this function.

I'd like to ask veterans of that genre of game: how important is rolling in a game like this? Is it absolutely necessary for this game? Is there an option to disable it (if I don't need it), or do I need to unbind the twist function on my joystick? Is it more of a sensitivity issue?

I really want to play and enjoy this game, but the rolling makes it borderline unplayable.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

There is an option to disable it, go into the settings and find the section on remapping joystick. Then just clear the entry for the twist.

I couldn't play without my twist used for banking. It's so vital I find in single and multiplayer games.
