Devs already discussed this somewhere, so they are aware of the issue. Mouse controls should be adapted for Magnum eventually.

What's about using the mouse scroll wheel to turn Magnum up and down? :ph34r:

Moving mouse left/right would turn tank left/right and scroll weel up/down.

Scroll wheel is used for camera. Moving the mouse up and down should change angle, while moving it left and right should rotate the camera around the tank without affecting the turret.

I don't use mouse controls very often, that's why I had forgotten this detail.

But, I think it could still be possible by pressing "Shift" while scrolling the wheel for turning the turret up and down; and the camera angle would work without the "Shift", or vice versa.

I clearly know that this suggestion could mean a re-design in the Magnum code, but, as I said, it's just a suggestion. What do you think?

Moving mouse forward/backward changes camera angle.

hello all  my opinion if press right click and  move mouse right & left it will  change camera without right click  and move mouse  it will  make magnum up & down . dont make upward & downward option please cause mouse users already using right & left for camera & turret movements so suddenly change to upward& downward movements will confuse & after some game play with magnum its so difficult to play with other turrets. ( sorry for my poor english)

Hazel said in the stream that they are first working on the release of HTML5 and mouse controls for Magnum will be looked at after that. Proper mouse controls for Magnum can NOT be added while the game is still in Flash.

Waiting for a fps boost

Go HTML 5 :-)

[Mario3108 462]

Wow! HTML5 is a great step for Tanki's history.

I have no idea how players can play with mouse controls, it's so hard. x_x

What are the possibilities of looking at having the Magnum turret being controlled by mouse control. So for instance to wheel up and down your turret will move up and down and also to be able to turn the turret horizontally with the mouse like with Hammer, Rail, Rico etc.

If declined state why please.

Magnum is already a hard turret to play with, why would you add an other hard challenge while playing with the hardest turret? i’m a bit confused...

Mouse is easier... With mouse on Magnum will make it easier...

[loginci 877]

Just please remove magnum it's so annoying not to be able to use it and not to have protection for it while every magnum no-lifer kills you

[GorgoBlesk 831]

At least the altered turret-turning Magnum should have mouse controls xD

[Crossbone 516]

Mouse scroller controls the vertical turret rotation of mouse control vertical magnum.

Would really help lighten the load off one hand when using mouse controls with vertical magnum.

Hello Tankers,

TLDR Add option to set up mouse controls as you like in settings -> control menu.

After playing several dozen houres with magnum ive finally got augment that lets you move the turret up and down. For me natural move was to play with hover hull and mouse because it makes aiming much more fluid and faster. The problem is: as you move your mouse, your turret doesnt move. Unlike any other turret. You have to manually set angle with ZX keys. This is really uncomfortable. You have to move your hand all the time from WASD to 12345 (supplies) and down to ZX keys. Missclicks happens all the time and in tight in-game situations you are seriously ineffective.I tried mapping turret rotation to QE keys and its a lot better but stil a tad awkward. So my idea was to move turret's rotation either to mouse up down or ideally - scroll up and down. Unfortunately that is not  currently an option. My suggestion is to add posibility of mapping mouse keys in control menu. I think it will be usefull in many situations other than my magnum issue.

Cheers

I am so bad at searching forums xd but my post isnt just about magnum controls but mapping mouse controls at all

anyway, it is about 4-5 years now since you (administrators ) have first said that developers are "aware of the issue". i guess we need to aware them more
