OK, definitely running an older beta. My bad on that. I'll update and play. > keyboard setup James North used with control for run, and the spacebar > key for jump. That worked rather nice.

I can play either way and you are correct, space is very common.

Tell you what. How about you make the torch idea I had work that way and then I don't care what you use for the keyboard commands. <just kidding> Seriously though, your suggestions and arguments for using the space for jumping do make more sense. PS: I still feel strongly about the torches idea I have working the way I suggested. -- Raul A.
