How long?

Post by Alex »

There I was happily going along in me ship. Parked for what I thought was a few mins/days/months.. sh*t years!
New machine same controller (Logitech 3D).
When moved game to new machine joystick buttons set to null.
Only a couple of years and do you think I remember what button done what?

Basic warning that I knew but ignored
Save often and for F. sake write it down. But then remember where you wrote it... Ah it goes on.
Bloomin sure I did write it down on a bit of paper a few years ago...

Have you had fun going back to a loved game?

Now where did that trumble eating cat go to sleep?
LOOK OUT!!!
OOPS..
"Press Space" Commander
If you do not see "Press Space" more often than you want.. Your not trying!

If you ever managed to work out what your settings were, would there be any chance of your posting them for others to refer to?

Thanks!

Take snapshots, Alex - then you can forget where you stashed them! Also, keep a copy of your .GNUstepDefaults file somewhere safe. <sniggers> C&P the relevant bits, and it saves oodles of time.
I would advise stilts for the quagmires, and camels for the snowy hills
And any survivors, their debts I will certainly pay. There's always a way!
