Summary0002490: Add joypad emulation
DescriptionSince recently some people including myself have gotten upset at people with a joypad, because of the unfair advantage it gives them when it comes to sr50'ing (they're able to turn while using sr50). Which is why a custom binary was made for joypad emulation, so we can play on equal grounds with actual joypad users. However the custom binary isn't allowed to be made public, which in turn makes it unfair for people who don't have a joypad and no way of emulating it.

That's why I feel joypad emulation should be added, so that everyone can get the advantage joypad users (and the people with the custom binary) have.

From what I figure, the official stance is that the joypad advantage is fair, being natively supported behavior. Further the joypad comes with a turning ability malus which evens the deal out further.

The joypad emulation is considered cheating and users of it should be banned. Future Zandronum versions will probably automatically crack down on its use.
